How do you feel about your team's strength & conditioning program?

It's the right time of the year (offseason) to talk about the strength and conditioning programs of teams. How do you guys/gals feel about YOUR team's S&C coach(s) and programs?
Do you feel they're good? great? the best in the SEC? or lacking maybe compared to others?
Of course, I'm partial to Scott Sinclair and what he and his comrades have done at UGA? I think ours is pretty good. But wanted everyone's take on the subject. Afterall, there's never an offseason with strength and conditioning.

Someone downvoted this because I asked how you feel about your team's S&C program...lol....I guess you think it sucks and your S&C coach needs to be fired, huh?

Don't know a thing about ours yet. I'll have to get back to you next fall.

Rebs struggled mightily in the second half all season (against all opponents except Auburn). Would be nice to rectify that and play tougher and more physical in the second half like in 2021.

S&C wise, I think this is the best LSU has been in years. Even in 2019 we had lots of little lingering issues that plagued the defense in particular.

It still comes down to recruiting. I remember Scott Cochran at Alabama allowing AJ McCarron to attempt a 600lb squat, can you imagine if he had gotten hurt? A 600 lb squat is not going to help your qb. He is a good strength coach, he just made a bad decision.
The one team's strength coach that I can think of that made the biggest difference was Iowa's former strength coach.Iowa doesn't recruit in the top 20 and developes players in and out of the weight room better than any team I have seen in CFB. The best signs of a strength coach are not just big strong players, but fewer injuries. People talk of players not in shape at end of the year, but they are in shape. If your offense doesn't move the ball and your not deep on talent/ depth on defense your defense wears out no matter how well conditioned you are in. Every SEC team has a good strength coach, Georgia had good strength coaches in the past, the difference is the recruiting by Kirby (top 3)and the way he is running the program.

Not that concerned. I'm sure outliers could screw up any team, but I'm far, far, far more concerned with the acquisition of top 5 talent.
I think ALL these "functional" S&C guys get a lot wrong anyways. They are all cut from the same cloth. They are not horrible, but they are not difference makers.
I think it's cute and predictable how certain top five teams' fans become enamored with their special, wonderful S&C, and great super coaching - after 5 or six years of bringing in supreme top 5 talent every year. Hmmmm?
