Six Things We Can Learn from Thad Castle

Played by actor Alan Ritchson, Thad Castle is known as the hunky yet dense captain of the Blue Mountain State Football team. With BMS airing for three season on Spike, and now the re-runs being streamed on Netflix, the spirit of Thad Castle has been with us since 2010. Now, we can relive the wonders of the Goat House with "Blue Mountain State: The Rise of Thadland," the BMS movie coming out on February 2nd (a date which we've been looking forward to since the series went off air.

In anticipation of the movie coming out, some major self-reflection has helped me realize something very important: we all need to be just a little bit like Thad himself. Here's why:

1. He's always willing to have a good time

There hasn't been a moment where Thad Castle hasn't been ready to get a little wild. He is always up for a new adventure, and there's hasn't been a day where he's been ready for the Goat House to turn up.

2. He's the life of the party

Whether it's celebrating Top Three in the draft or participating in the Drug Olympics, Thad never fails to remain the center of attention every time the Goat House throws down. He is, after all, the captain of the team. He's gotta set an example.

3. He's willing to make sacrifices for the sake of his success

If you know Thad Castle, you know that Oksana may be the single most important object in his life. If he can burn his prized possession in order to get drafted, you can do anything.

4. He isn't afraid to let his emotions show

Thad is an emotional man, and proud of it. It makes us human. He has a way of showing his emotions in a way that we should all be doing. Let it out Thad, let it out.

5. He is willing to take control

When the going gets tough, Thad gets going. If he's in a sticky situation, Thad isn't afraid to do what needs to be done in order to restore order to the world (and the Goat House).

6. He works hard and stays dedicated—to looking good

Need I say more?

We love you, Thad.

I remember my freshman year oh so well. I remember feeling terrified the night before orientation. The one thing that I dreaded the most was not the new people, the new environment, or even the academic pressure. I was dreading having to talk to sorority girls about Recruitment. I remember cutting off and avoiding any Rho Gamma/Panhellenic Officer that came my way during First Week. I looked at them like they had asked me to cut my arm off whenever they asked me if I wanted to rush. To be honest, I did not even know what rush was, but I knew that I did NOT want to be a part of it. To me, it was dumb. It was a waste of money. It was a waste of my time.

And guess what? I did not rush my freshman year. I spent the first half of my freshman year isolating myself from everyone on campus. I spent all of my time in the library, and then (since I was a commuter) went back home once my work was finished.

Tiana would no doubt be disappointed in the food our cafeteria has to offer.

And hopefully she would cook for everyone in her dorm.

She definitley would not take any 8:00 am classes because she would be up late baking and cleaning up the communal kitchen that are available in every dorm.
