above against happened hard heart knew opportunity playing screen son start time watch
It was really exciting. To have the opportunity to play against your son and see him start and play as hard as he played, I didn't watch him much, but every time I happened to look up there on the screen up above there, he was playing his heart out, which I knew he was.
keeping light playing starter
It was like a light went on for him at the end of the fall. And he's keeping it up. He's playing like a starter now.
best blessing coach coaching felt given great hands iowa possibly program staff
He has a great coach there, a great coaching staff there and I never would have given my blessing to go to Iowa if I didn't think that was a great program with great coaches. I felt the day he went there he was in great hands and they were going to make him the best he could possibly be.
best coach giving hard players trying
There are no secrets, no gimmicks, no tricks. Players will play hard when they know their coach is giving them everything and is trying to make each player the best he can be. That's all it is.
best came close gone interest mother offered playing position
He came very close to playing for Notre Dame. We offered him (a scholarship), we wanted him, but I just did not feel that it was in his best interest to play for his dad. His mother always said he would have gone there, but she didn't like the position coach.
