Coach London being a Christian, that was one of my biggest factors. He just inspired me. We've always talked about leadership. I try to lead at the school and around my neighborhood. I always try to lead the people I'm around. In him, I see a man that's leading a whole football team and showing Christ. He's representing Jesus Christ and that was a really important factor for me. It was just a match." "I remember one time Coach (Chip) West was talking to all of us. He said, 'Mario, you'd be a great receiver for us. Courtnye, you'd be a great tight end or defensive end. Will, you'd be a great defensive back or receiver. Kwontie, you could play wherever you want to play.'" "I know they want me at linebacker but it would be real cool if I could play some running back. Whatever the team needs." |
