YHC was angry. Very angry. The season had been promising (despite that one point loss to the Bulldogs way back when). But then, as is all to common over the last 10 years, The Irish ran into a buzzsaw and got demolished. YHC has seen this same scenario play out way too many times. So PAX were going to feel his wrath.
After a pre-thank run with Cowbell, YHC donned his Irish gear and greeted the 16 PAX with a disclaimer (poorly given, as usual) and we moseyed to the Great Lawn.

- 8 Burpees OYO
Yes, grumbling PAX (Fracsac in particular) noted that this sounded like a football score. And indeed it was. 41-8 Miami on Saturday the 11th. At this point, YHC announced his intentions of taking out his anger on the PAX. And the PAX wondered why they had to bear that wrath? Rocky Top wondered why we weren’t talking about Tennessee football failures? The answer to both questions is the same: because Rudy is the Q.
COP #2: 2016 Football Season
Mosey to a corner of the great lawn to commemorate the 4-8 Irish Powerhouse. At each of the 4 corners (corresponding to our lowly 4 wins), do 8 8-count-body-builders (celebrating the 8 losses, to powerhouses such as Duke and Navy)
