Chapters

So when I got to college, you know transition into being on your own, adjusting, wanting to fit in, wanting to be liked, studying all practice, starting film, weights, all those things it can be overwhelming and you know with how difficult all that stuff is it led to frustration it led to me just not understanding the process and seriously like on my and I've mentioned this in the book, Coach Donovan had to take me to his office a little bit before the season started I believe and said hey man, I love you but if you're not going to let me coach you you might as well think about transferring someone else. I'm thankful for that because he wasn't asking for perfection never but he was asking for humility was asking for progress not perfection and I was not perfect through that but I did progress. Each year I got better with my attitude, with my understanding, with my love for the game, with my role so grateful.
