Anyone can take the best 11 kids around and form a team, it's the other 11 kids that don't get picked that will win you championships. Fire in the heart is all the motivation they need.
It doesn't matter what your name is, or what license you hold, without 11 kids you don't have a team.
It's about all these guys who came before them. They all graduated, and they're playing in college. If they'd given up, there would have been no program.
He's just a sophomore, and he's a stud. He only does it against the good teams. Imagine if we had an extra fullback and could run him up front all the time.

People say that if you want to play soccer in college you have to play for us, all we do is steer kids in the right direction, then give them a kick in the pants for motivation.
It's why we play the game. Anything is possible, anything can happen, and we proved that again tonight.
