Question for those of you who been through August Camp

[KajunKrazy]

I am more of a free weight and dumbbell kind of lifter.

O you a downstairs guy.

[JMV JustMyView]

O you a downstairs guy.

Yeah just not a cold or hot tube guy, that is for Vin-sent.

[R1Letterman]

That's the same thing I focus on. Don't need or want to max out anymore.

Is that why there is more time between big announcement upcoming post and the actual big announcement now

“When we hired coach Napier the product was broken and it needed to be fixed. Now the product isn’t broken and we just need someone who knows the process and can keep it running as is” (Bryan Maggard at the introductory press conference) But it appears our TE assistant who had never been a coordinator knew better than Billy and his top 2 mentors Nick and Dabo because he changed the whole process from day one. If Billy would have been consider to be junction boy style camp which he was not, you could say mike is running a camp for powder puff football players. Every story I hear coming from people who participated in both talk about how much softer mikes camp is than Billy’s was.

Yep. It has gotten very soft from what my birdie tells me.

Well, I was in camp Bunkie 78-79. The tuba players had it rough AF. I was a saxophone player (phenomenal, btw) we certainly endured the dust and the heat, but our instruments were light compared to the brass. The flute players had it so easy. In fact there were evenings after supper that they enjoyed practicing so much, some of us would walk back into the wooded area behind camp with them. We were there for encouragement. Ill tell you what, not one of those young ladies stopped practicing until we all agreed that they had given there all. I have fond memories of camp.

Bunkie band camp! We weathered a hurricane there 1 year and lost power for 2 of the days. Marched in the slop afterward.
Can u imagine if something like that happened today? It would be national news and parents would have a class action lawsuit.
I don’t think a single parent picked their kid up. The 80’s was a simpler time

Who is your birdie?

A friend of mine who’s son is on the team that prepped in Lafayette parish. That is a specific as I’ll get.
