HEADLAND – Lopsided losses to Louisiana-Lafayette and Appalachian State to end the football season understandably rubbed Troy coach Chip Lindsey the wrong way.
He’s counting on a sparkling recruiting class, a new strength and conditioning coach and a revamped attitude to turn things back in the Trojans’ favor.
“Our motto this year is going to be Trojan Tough,” Lindsey said. “We feel like mentally, emotionally and physically we need to be tougher.
“There were times last year that we played well, and there were times in my opinion that we weren’t real tough. We’ve got to improve that.
