As disappointing as our lose last week was I often wonder if the players or the coaches have the tougher time letting go. Our guys responded well to the challenge. They know that Bethel will be a great test for them to see how to respond to the adversity of letting the Goat get away. What I saw from our team this week is a group of guys who were committed to each other and in having fun. The goals we set at the beginning of the year are still within our reach. This is a good football team and they need to believe that in order reach their potential. Look forward to seeing everybody "On The Hill" tomorrow!
GO OLES!
About Me
- ST. OLAF FOOTBALL
- I strive to be a servant leader. One of my firmly held beliefs is that God has put us on the earth to serve others. I am a Christian, husband, father and mentor in that order. On March 31, 2008, I was named the 11th head football coach at St. Olaf. It is both a blessing and honor to be associated with so many great Oles, past & present. Prior to joining St. Olaf, I coached at my alma mater, Wis.-Stevens Point, as defensive coordinator the last two seasons. I spent seven seasons as an assistant at Division II Minnesota State University-Mankato (1993-96, 1999-02) before a three-year stint as the CEO of the Mankato YMCA. I also spent one season as the offensive coordinator for the Green Bay Bombers of the Arena Football league (1999) and another as an assistant at California Lutheran University (1998) as defensive line coach. My wife Deana and I have three children, son Jett and daughters Jersey and J.J.
