I would hate to see a transcript of what I say on a daily basis, but Campbell seems to use a lot of the same phrases when he speaks, you know.

"Yeah". I expect he is trying to become, the best version of himself.

FWIW, I love the guy. However, I am a little tired of his pressers and coach speak now. It is a bit repetitive. I've been ignoring everything since 3/4'ers into last season to now.

It's just so many words to say so little, you know.

I do the same thing, and my wife hates it.

Most people have crutch words. I rather he have a crutch word than waste time on trying to get rid of it.

Runner-up: "I think."

Yeah, no, you know, I sound like a broken record here but it really comes down to...man, can we get better and grow from here. Can we be elite in our process? That's what I'm looking for.

Randy’s “under center” joke reference is starting to wear a little. Love CMC’s “OK, what’s the question?”

 

[Proton]

I’ve heard pretty much all I need to from Campbell. My impression is that he’s not speaking for our, the fans, benefit. It’s for the players and coaches he works with to show them he knows and appreciates them. I think that’s great, but I don’t need to hear it.

 

[casey1973]

Still a fan of CMC but at this point I find myself just waiting for the same speech. I would think even he would be tired of saying the same introduction. Ya this ya that.
Idk.

Every time he’s asked about a specific athlete:

Yeah, you talk about a leader and what they stand for and what they bring to our program every day to become the best version of themselves and really hone their craft blah blah blah…

 

[RedBlooded]

I wish I could write like Campbell talks. He says a lot of words that essentially mean nothing. I could have used those skills in college while writting papers to meet minimum word counts.

What is the name of the Mizzou transfer we pursued? Georgia landed Lovett. Were we after another guy?

Really just a great foopball player

Georgia landed Lovett?

 

[Connor_Ferguson]

Georgia landed Lovett?

Georgia got Dominic Lovett (Zach Lovett, the transfer LB from Missouri, is his brother). Believe Iowa State had Dominic on campus at one point years ago before Zach was being recruited.

Mine is "G*d damn it."

I'm not even sure if I've watched anything from him since preseason.

There's plenty of other ways to get caught up about players and there's that whole 'what actually happens on the field' thing.
