A story involving Coach Peveto from LSU 2007

A few weeks ago, as the Tigers were preparing to play South Carolina, Pelini asked linebackers coach Bradley Dale Peveto to step outside.

Seems a disagreement over a scheme had led to a heated exchange in front of LSU's players during a defensive team meeting. The best way to settle it, Pelini figured, was to throw down in the hallway.

"They walked out the doors and all of a sudden we're hearing bodies banging against walls and them screaming at each other," defensive tackle Marlon Favorite said. "We were trying to get out there and stop it, but the assistants were blocking the door."

Favorite begins to cackle.

"After a few minutes they walked back in laughing," he said. "It was all a joke. Football can get intense sometimes. Coach Pelini does a good job of keeping us loose and relaxed."

That's funny. And a good idea to break tension sometimes.

Coach Peveto seems to be quite the character, as evidenced by the UK football special I saw on TV maybe a couple of weeks before the season actually started. Just before the show went into a commercial break, it would go to him and he'd be saying corny stuff like "if it's Thanksgiving, Mark Stoops says to 'stuff your turkey', or if it's the 4th of July, Mark Stoops says to 'light your fireworks'. I think he might be one of those guys that you'd just love to meet and hang out with for a little bit, seems like he might be "the life of the party" and a lot of fun to be around. And very serious about football! :smilies-33442:
