bowl came coaches definitely drop intensity last potential reach weight year
When we came back from the bowl game, we didn't reach our potential like we should have last year. Weight could have been a part of it, so all the coaches wanted us to drop weight, get stronger, get quicker. We definitely had the intensity to do that this year during winter.
passed testing
I was just tested. Someone was just testing me, and I think I passed all the tests.
aside believe chance couple dedicated excited great hard help realized season threw
I really couldn't believe it. When they told me I had to have surgery, I couldn't believe it. I was really upset. I was having a great camp, and I was really excited to get the season going. I had a couple hard days, but after that, I realized I'd have a chance to come back and help the team. I threw everything aside and dedicated myself to getting back.
