Re: Coyotes
I read today that Stig and the players are taking this game like any other game, which I think is good, but I hope the coaches have told the players that this game is a different beast that what they have played before. Fans are ugly towards each other, there is a bit more chip on the shoulders of the players, etc.
One year we beat USD under Crehan (spelling could be off, but he isn't worth checking to see if it is right), they trashed the locker room in Frost arena, fans say the worst kind of stuff to you, students like to throw objects at you at the Dakota Dump, etc.. I was at a meeting for work in the Twin Cities, another person at this meeting was a former USD player as well, once it was found out where each of us played, it turned ugly and we ended up talking smack at this meeting, and we are bankers for crying out loud! It is just a different game, period.
This is 100+ years of dislike here that these guys haven't seen yet. USD is taking this as their Super Bowl. I hope we are mentally up for this from the start and the players aren't thrown off by the spectacle of it, because it is going to be something.
