He wants to do so well that sometimes he presses. He's trying to do so much, and he sees guys making plays, and he wants to do well.

bench guys nine ours rely step strength utilize
It's been a strength of ours all year. We play nine or 10 guys. We have different guys step up. We don't rely on one or two guys. We utilize our bench as much as we can.

You never know what's going to happen. Guys gets hurt, and those (younger) guys have to get experience.

He is the toughest guy who I've seen play here. I really admire what he's done.
guys handled overcome reason seniors stuck time
The seniors are the reason we play. It's our program, but it's their team. These guys have overcome so much. At one time or another, each one of them hasn't started. But they all handled it. They have stuck through it.

Some guys on our team were visibly tired. We kept telling them in timeouts, you've just got to gut through it.

I wear pretty much the same clothes everyday. Just like those guys, I do the exact same thing every game day.

You're always looking to see who has interest in you. I would never say I'm not interested. I'm always willing to talk. You owe it to yourself to explore all your options.
