The lives of wives of college football coaches are not for the faint of heart.
More often than not, time with their husbands is limited during most months of the year. Everyday tasks often are left up to them.
Laura Fry, the wife of University of Arkansas offensive line coach Dustin Fry, learned to be independent soon after her husband landed his first job in 2012 as a graduate assistant at Clemson while she drove his beloved 1983 red-and-white GMC Sierra truck.
"It broke down at a gas station when I was driving it, but he couldn't come and bail me out," said Fry, who was pregnant with their first child, Hudson, at the time.
