Mental Toughness.....1992





 I was really excited to see this today. When I became the head coach at Paris in 92, I knew I had a great group of young men, but mental toughness was an issue for us. We had this sign made, placed it over the door, and smacked it every Friday night. These guys went on to be a mentally tough team. Two of my highlights, trailing with less than 2 minutes vs. Bellevue, facing 3rd & 27, we got the 1st down, scored & won a first round playoff game. The week before we won a district title stopping Raceland's 2 point try with no time left on the clock. I'm very happy the current Hounds have this in their locker room. It meant a lot to me to see it today. I will always love the orange & black!
