Music frustrates. Sometimes coaches use different types of music to intimate the other team. Coaches practice music across the Pac-12. They tend to have the players ready for upcoming games. “The business of music at a football practice is tricky. At times, it needs to inspire. Other times, it needs to pester and frustrate.
