ability acts beginning drill focus game key last mean warming
Drill work, I mean he acts as if it's last play of a big game and he's got to do it right. I mean even when we're warming up, at the beginning (of practice), that he's working on his accuracy. He's got an extraordinary ability to focus in and key in and get better.
effort field game good liberate oftentimes opportunity prior problems ran somber tragedy
You find it to be true, when tragedy strikes, oftentimes you find an opportunity out on the field to liberate yourself from some of your problems and troubles. That's what I think we were able to do. The effort was good out there. They ran around and got after it. But prior to the game, and when the game was over, they were in a somber mood.

After a tragedy, we find a way to shake the troubles. It's a somber locker room since they found out. But they have been very businesslike.

They were happy to have an opportunity to see their head coach. They hadn't seen him for almost a week. They wanted to show their support for him in this tough time. They had a chance to talk with him and see him and in some cases touch him.
forgets gifts great helps maximize memory physical rarely recall sharp study terms unusual
He's a very unusual person that has physical gifts and he also has great intellectual gifts. He has a memory that, without question, is sharp as one could have. He rarely forgets anything and he can recall things from eons back. But that helps him, I think, just in terms of being the detail-oriented person that he is. He's able to maximize his study and preparation for our opponents.
forward hard helping normally opportunity speak
I had the opportunity to speak with him, and he's there helping his family. He didn't give me any directions, he just told us to go forward and do the things we normally do -- play hard and play well.
