Aaron Feld?

[nystateofmind]

Anyone with a brain knew Feld was a bad hire.

I wonder how quickly we’ll be able to get out of his contract.

I thought David Feeley was a good S&C Coach.

I thought David Feeley was a good S&C Coach.

Just wondering why?

Just wondering why?

What issues did you have with him? He did great with what he had to work with, injuries were greatly reduced compared to Felder, and our guys were never gassed in the 4th quarter.

Just wondering why?

Varied resume through the years, players here appeared to have a balance between build and maintaining quickness rather than too much pull toward one physical trait, generally avoided the kind of stress injuries that poor S&C leads to.

I also talked extensively with someone who was in S&C/Sports medicine at FIU who had very high regard for him. Always said that he tailors techniques to individuals, which I believe he did while here (I have no way to know that 100% without being in the room).

I knew nothing of Feld, but did not like his gimmicky attitude. The injuries during the season, which apparently were a trend at Oregon, soured my taste further.

So Mario doesn't have a brain? Strong accusation

He used/uses post-activation potentiation in his programming which was an area of research for my Master's. I'm still not sure how viable it is in training but the fact that he not only knows what it is but implements it at the collegiate level is sick. Dude's legit.

I understand that people's bodies are very different in terms of our floors and ceilings, but I am a firm believer that a trainer should look the part. Feeley looked like someone who trained for an athletic purpose.

Gus Felder was fat. I couldn't take anything about him seriously. He wasn't walking the walk.

Feld is a bodybuilder. There's nothing wrong with that, of course, but it's not football either.

I don’t care who is running S&C here. Blades ain’t recovering that fumble against TAMU regardless.

 

[pacusmc]

He should’ve been a safety since his freshman year.

 

[HurricanePhilly]

This is the money year for Feld. Time to prove doubters wrong or right.

But if Guidry wants he could bring Hester along with him and I’d be fine with it. Hopefully they hit it off in those 2 weeks (and I know Hester is a Tulane alum and loves Louisiana…but one can dream)

 

[BostonCanes47]

I’d take feeley 10/10 times over feld

 

[Rocketcitycane06]

There are those on the board who arent big fans of feld as well. impossible to make everyone happy in the field of s&c

He's very replaceable.

Al Blades taking "body" selfies? OK. We will see if he even starts for Duke. He was not good enough to start for his HS team, but somehow got a scholarship to Miami. He never was a starter here that I can recall. Duke is a good spot for him to compete as a 7th year Sr.

All S&C coaches get better results with athletes that have better genes. Want elite S&C results get elite athletes. Can only make so much chicken salad out of chicken ****

He was and still is.

He’s TikTok ready.

Going to go ahead and say bring back Moffit

So does Feld…
