“I feel bad for both of those young men and want them to get healthy, but trust me. I am going to take care of my guys, too. No one is going to come over and yell at me or my sideline and say that we don’t have integrity or play the game the right way. That’s not the facts. I am not going to allow that to happen.”

I can feel the fire in those comments.  I like it.  #GetLit

^ Agreed and I like it too. 

As far as personnel package changes he is referring to...Get big bodies (Kelvin Smith or someone similar) out in space and get the ball in their hands. That will get this offense and this young QB headed in the right direction.

Coach Littrell does not care about hash tags.

Context, people. Context. He doesn't care to talk about hashtags at a press conference.

“Afterward he [McElwain] said the we have had a couple of  targeting calls. Those are not the facts. We haven’t had any targeting calls. He brought up that we took out  the SMU quarterback. No, the SMU quarterback was running in the open field. He got hit. His cleat got stuck. It is what it is. It’s football. We are not trying to hurt anyone.

Truth.

SL may not like hash tags, but I like #GetLit!

Love the straightforward, transparent approach from Littrell. "What you see is what you get", and that is so refreshing from a coach. Looking forward to seeing the improvement this week and being 1-0 in C-USA.
