Famous Coach Charlie Adkins Quotes or Stories!
#8
Another one had to be back in 2002 when they played in Myrtle Beach against the #6 team in the nation. They were getting beat and some of the freshmen was on the bench cracking jokes, laughing, having a good ole' time. He turned to them and said "You all aren't nothing but a bunch of hamburger eaters, every last one of ya."

Here is another one, one of the pitchers came in during a bases loaded situation. The pitcher threw just three pitches. Two were hit for doubles and drove in 3 runs, the next pitch was a ball. He called time, went to the mound and told him that he didn't have his stuff today and his curveball wasn't working. Funny thing about it was he didn't even have a curveball.

Another was the bases were loaded with 1 out, the pitcher was practically throwing batting practice, the shortstop asked the coach if he wanted them to play in. He said "No, you'll get your shins beat off." One of the players on the bench laughed, and he turned to him and said, "how about we put you in there and let you get your shins beat off." So many more stories to tell...great man, love him to death.
