Beat the heat like a soccer player

Here’s advice from player Rachel Holden of the University of North Texas:

Stay hydrated. This isn’t about just drinking water right before practice, but drinking water throughout the day as well as limiting unhealthy drinks like soda.

Grab a Gatorade or chocolate milk after practice to replenish minerals, carbohydrates and proteins.

Don’t practice in the hottest part of the day. Instead, practice in the morning or evening when it’s not as sunny.

Don’t complain about the heat. It’s easier if you deal with it head-on.

      A few HSO's

      I was kind of hoping this HSO thread would help me get over the hump and renew the two season tickets I’ve had since the days of dirt at Fouts Field and the old cement urinals there. Unfortunately I, probably like some others, can’t seem to generate any old fashioned enthusiasm for the new version of “ here today gone tomorrow, pass through jocks . Somehow there just seems to be a missing piece; commitment, loyalty, alma mater. Yesterday’s discarded intangibles. Well, today is deadline day, can I break an old habit?

      If…..

      I gave you a +1, but I also suspect he would not get along with the Grants and Ross's of our world. Would be loads of fun and wins, though.

      Best BBQ in each Texas college football town

      For anyone who hasn't experienced the greatness of Hutchins, you should treat yourself the next time you are in either Frisco or McKinney. Some of the best brisket I've had (and other good stuff too). And... since UNT has expanded into Frisco, I guess we can claim Hutchins as a UNT BBQ place 😎

      A few HSO's

      There’s no contradiction. The average fan/alumni aren’t paying NIL, it’s the big donors and corporations. And they’re only doing it because that’s the way it is under the current, broken system. My 2nd point is that comparing college coaches with college players is neither a fair nor equal comparison.

      Seton Hall star Kadary Richmond enters transfer portal

      No Way Jose! Just the opportunity for him to get out of Jersey is payment enough!
