Live DJ at mooring workout #RISEandGRIND

I don't think it is a good idea... I get what he is trying to do but if defeat doesn't motivate you nothing will... Yea a live DJ is fun but how is that creating discipline? I don't need a live DJ to hype me up after a disappointing finish... Sometimes you have to stick with the old school... I understand the idea but this isn't what our team needs... Just my opinion... It's becoming more of a party than a workout...
 
My goodness. I can't believe ppl complaining about this. It's college. They working hard. He just letting then know he appreciates them. Nothing wrong. It's not every day its one freaking day. Geez. And we don't follow others programs closely we don't know what they do for the kids.

Wow... One day with a DJ in the weight room and we get responses like this. I can guarantee that the DJ being there will have ZERO negative impact on the team. Games won't be lost because a DJ was in the weight room for a brief time at 5:30 am on a random June day. There are so many legitimate criticisms that can be leveled against Golden and staff but a DJ for one day is an issue??? Come on.

It's okay for college football players to have fun every once in a while.

If you don't understand that this was half for the kids (which they loved) and half for a viral marketing effort then you just don't get it.

Just to make sure accuracy prevails: the record of Miami in Golden's first year was not better than the record Randy's last year.

Now that no one has been mislead, and the academic honesty of CIS is restored, the thread can resume discussing important marketing videos and DP's arms. And whether they should even be discussed at all since nothing can be discussed until Labor Day related to football.

Thanks... I love these videos and chit.

As for Golden has killed it with all these tactics. They are awesome. He is a marketing machine. Right now Randy is still asking for directions to the walmart over in Arky. I'm glad we moved on. Lastly, DP's arms are crazy freakish!

I get the point you're trying to make but in my opinion I don't think it's a good idea... I think practice is meant to become more discipline and focus for the players as opposed to being a party... In my opinion... Has nothing to do with getting the marketing objective...

I never said they couldn't have fun however a DJ during practice is a bit much... Like I said, it's my opinion... I don't really see a benefit in doing this... Practice is meant to become more discipline and focused in hopes of improving upon our skills... I just think a DJ is a bit much... I mean we had lots of fun last year playing in nail biters with against mediocre teams and getting whooped by teams worth something... I saw the videos of the players dancing during practice and having fun lady year... We haven't earned the right to take it easy yet... I just don't see the benefit in a DJ...

And get over your feelings... I'm not criticizing Golden... I just don't see the benefits of a DJ at practice...

Maybe the coaches are just rewarding the players for the effort, hard work and for not getting into trouble.

It´s a basic principle in any area... if your subordinates are doing everything you ask, the way you asked, without creating any problems, you rewards them for fulfillment of duty. You can not just ask without giving in return.

Btw, they were doing the same workouts as always, just with a more relaxed environment. It does not damage the discipline and focus, period.

But it isn't even practice. You repeat the word practice over and over. It was a weightlifting session at 5:30 am in the offseason. This wasn't the week of a game. This wasn't fall practice.

Perhaps you should get over your feelings and objectively see that a DJ at a 5:30 am workout session has no bearing on winning or losing football games, discipline, focus, etc... It was allowing the kids a small amount of fun during the offseason, that is it.
 
If Shannon's best team ('09) and Golden's best team ('13) played each other, I bet you that Shannon's team would win by three touchdowns.
 
A DJ during an off season liftng session won't be the reason we lose games this year, if we even do lose ( I'm wearing my green and orange glasses!). Anything that keeps the players focused, and unifies the team, is a positive thing.

We are Miami. We've always done things different with a little more style. UM is about winning and having fun. I'm glad the players are having fun again, now start WINNING!
 
So let me get this right F'ing FSU and Bama are using rocket scientist and developing cutting edge S&C methods and technology that results in super human type players an have championships to show for it.

http://www.canesinsight.com/threads/76049-Has-anyone-read-this-article-about-FSU-and-GPS-technology

While Al Golden brings in a goddam DJ to help in S&C , oooohhh wait it gets better he also turns out the lights while these kids are lifting weights , I guess being able to see form and technique aren't important any longer in training.

Jimbo is going to have a field day negative recruiting against this. I won't even mention what Mario is going say in negative recruiting recruits away from Miami.

I am all for playing music to get players pumped for a workout but this stuff is a straight dog and pony show. If anything Al should get a DJ for the Games.

As a leader you will have failures and successes, so will see which one this is for AG. All I know is UM used to be the model for S&C training an had the rings to show for it. I pray this doesn't come back to bite Golden in the ***! I do like the music selection Sak Pase to all the Haitian's out there..

Go Canes

This is what FSU is using to train

Wow. This will lead to negative recruiting? Of all things, this?

Jesus Christ.

Oh so you two think the DJ idea is better than using the nasa scientists along with cutting edge biomonitoring ?
 
An if you do think the DJ idea will bare more fruit, well then lets go ham up in here as the kids say today.

You are just trolling... no one can be so dense.

Please, explain to me how one thing excludes the other
 
some will say "too much sunshine" others will say "darn creative idea from staff"
