r/CFB • Arkansas Razorbacks • 10h ago

Discussion This week in press conference, Charles Huff compared his program to being a Navy SEAL and threw shade at prior Coach Silverfield saying “They didn't hire me to stand there with my arms folded and look like I'm lost." They had 6 turnovers and lost to a 4th string freshman QB last night.

Arkansas fans don’t even like silverfield but talk about hilarious timing. Memphis fans were so convinced that Silverfield was the only issue and then laid an all time egg with that performance. There is no doubt if you watched that game Memphis is the better team and lost. Maybe coach Huff should coach them like Marines or Air Force next time.

Every time I see someone compare football to being at war, I lose respect for them.

when u dont understand analogies

  1. Woody Hayes (Ohio State): U.S. Navy — Enlisted in July 1941, rose to the rank of Lieutenant Commander, and commanded patrol craft in the Pacific Theatre during World War II.: "Football is about the only thing left that teaches discipline, and war is about the only other thing."

  2. George Allen (Redskins): U.S. Navy — Served during World War II as part of the Navy's V-12 Officer Training Program at Marquette University.: "Football is like war. It takes 11 men on every play, working together as one unit."

  3. Paul "Bear" Bryant (Alabama): U.S. Navy — Served as a Lieutenant Commander during World War II, initially assigned to North Africa aboard the troopship USS Uruguay.: "In a war, you don't care how many battles you lose as long as you win the war. In football, every game is a battle you must win."
