Is this one of the worst excuses of all time?
Florida State's coach Willie Taggart attempted to blame their embarrassing lead blowing loss against Boise State (Are they even FBS?) on the team being dehydrated.
"I think after going through last weekend and seeing our guys going down and cramping, one thing we talked about with our medical staff is our guys got to hydrate.” "That can't be on Friday, that can't be on Thursday, they need to start hydrating early in the week and take care of their bodies. We can't leave it up to our players just to do it. We've got to force them to hydrate and take care of themselves. "I don't know if we did a good job of that last weekend. One of those situations where you live and learn, and we'll make sure that we help our guys when it comes to that."
That's wild.
Imagine being a college football coach telling your players they don't know how to hydrate....
They're elite athletes for crying out loud. Taggart is a clown for even trying to find an excuse. You lost against a mediocre football team with a freshman QB.
Maybe they'll be hydrated and "find a way to beat UL-Monroe."
