Scott Sinclair
The more uga workout videos I watch the more I start to think he was Kirby’s most underrated or best hire for his staff.
If not that, it shows Kirby can spot talent in high school kids and future coaches
Comments
Definitely the most important hire injuries have went down significantly and I don’t think it’s just luck. Injuries can happen anytime no matter what but how many injuries have we had the last 2 years like major injuries 3-4 2 or 3?
I mean if you look at those Marshall teams when he was at Marshall; they were winning and were very physical football teams.
In 2013 when Sinclair joined Marshall team
These are the records and rushing stats
2013 10-4 205 yards per game
2014 13-1 271 yards per game
2015 10-3 168 yards per game
Before Sinclair got there
2011 7-6 120 yards per game
2012 5-7 167 yards per game
Since Sinclair left
2016 3-9 108 yards per game
2017 8-5 140 yards per game
See the difference
Does a great job as the “get back” coach also.
A few years ago I'd have died for Cochran, but now I wouldn't trade Snclar anything!!!GATA DAEFS!
I wonder - tecihnically - how do they differ? I see personality differences. I mean in approach to strength/conditioning - types of lifts etc.
Cochran annoys the heck out of me. He's the Richard Simmons of CFB trainers.
I've seen video of him where he gets this "odd" look on his face - almost like he's going into the rapture or something - and then he starts his "schtick". Just kind of odd, to me. Certainly gets results.
I would have preferred this be perhaps 2/3rds less of this. Why? Giving too much away! Sources and methods, man. Any way, the snippets I've seen in videos elsewhere indicate that Sinclair is very good at keeping the player interest through variety and building enthusiasm. Another of the 7 million indications that Kirby is special.
I just think Cochran is a lil more wired like he broke into a stash of meth or something lol. Sinclair just seems business like and gets the point across to the guys. Seeing Jordan clean 350 the other day was REALLY impressive for a freshman. That 3 star could end up being a monster for us if he learns hand technique, footwork and leverage.
I may be wrong but in a head to head strength challenge, I've got Sinclair all day! With those short arms there's no telling what he benches.
This is off topic but would anybody that reads this trade Kirby for ole Nick? I say HELLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLL NAW
Since no one has mentioned differences between the two, other than “personal style”, is it safe to assume (probably not) that their actual programs - lifts, sets reps, weight loading, sequencing, etc., are a lot alike?
I’m guessing Kirby saw what worked at Bama, shared it with Sinclair and compared notes.
I think Sinclair is doing a good job especially when considering the decrease in injuries. This video (and part 2) of Aaron Feld who left Georgia to head the strength and conditioning program at Oregon is probably similar to Georgia's philosophy. He puts a reporter through a football workout.
