Will Andersen looked at the group of young punkass cowboy wannabes and he told them that the first day after school let out they were to report to him at 5am with a bed roll, a couple good ropes and a horse, if they had one. And then he told them to show up with gritted teeth, because that's when school really begins.
That was The Duke, by the way.
Jeff Blashill will never be mistaken for John Wayne.
But he does have a group of brash, young punkass kids with grit and potential.
We've got a long season ahead.
