I am all for the emotion, but I for one was always proud of the class Tress displayed on and off the field. As long as the energy and emotion is tempered with respect and decorum, then I am really excited to see the change. I just think the mindset of the Tressel era was important in the respect that it showed you CAN have an elite competitive program sans a thuggish swagger.
That was something I always preached to my recruits, "Motivation tempered by Discipline". Reckless motivation can be detrimental and ultra conservatism can lack production.
I don't always take names when I kick ass but when I do, they most often belong to a Wolverine.

Couldn't agree more. You can be fired up, but still act like you've been there.
