Allen Lazard ‏@AllenLazard 2h2 hours ago Y'all can hate on my coaches, teammates, or me, but I promise you whether you are with us or against us we are going to stick together.


What a leader and tremendous young man. No matter what, theses young men are family and I will never be against them. #forevertrue

He's a great Cyclone! He's one of the reasons why I'll still show up to the games, stay until the end win or lose, and hope like hell they can get a few more wins.

It's maybe a bit difficult for him to remove himself from the staff, but they aren't good at their job. That doesn't mean they aren't good people, of course.

Regardless of anyone's opinion of the coaches job ability or performance, CPR and company are still their leaders and I respect anyone who still works hard for the captain. These kids can not control who their coach is, but they can control how they work for them.......for those reasons I RESPECT these kids for not giving up. Those qualities are not easily found with the younger generation.

I like that our players( or at least Lazard) respect our coaching staff, but the unfortunate truth is that these coaches we have aren't very good at their jobs.

I wouldn't expect anything less.

Why is this needed? Those qualities are found just as easily with the current younger generation as they were with every generation before them. It's just convenient for old people to complain about them.

Totally agree. Some of the current older generation looks down so terribly on the younger generation. Go Google juvenile crime rates, and it has all been decreasing steadily for 20 years. Bullying isn't cool, less kids doing drugs, etc.

To be honest, every day parents get worse on the sidelines.

Not only every younger generation, but old people too.

As if old people always respect who they work for- especially when old people have no control over who they work under.

And as if old people never give up.

If you want to go further, spend time researching the family in this country (and colonial days). The complaints are exactly the same for almost 400 years of being over here, and they're the same for hundreds of years back in Europe as well.

Nothing new under the sun in this thing. It's as predictable as clockwork.

Don't assume my age because you are wrong. I will tell you that I work hard and expect the same from people that I have hired. Finding hard working, loyal and non entitled youth is not easy. People like Lazard would be a dream employee.

Hire old people next time.

This team returns a lot next year. WR is set and good....RB is stud...Oline returns 3....we possibly have found a competent QB who we know can run well and has rocket for an arm....defense loses Pierson(big loss) and Floyd but retuns everyone else who matters..Trent T hasn't played much so I don't really count him and Jhausten will be real good next year. We are a other good OLB and Safety from having a real good shot at a decent team next year.
