Default That's coach to you

I had my interview with Coach Fairchild today and it went really well. I have a meeting with the Director of Football Operations on Monday to make it official but I am in!!

My responsibilities will include a little bit of everything it sounds like. I can't wait to get started!!

Yessa massa.

Yall shoulda seen how nervous I was. I try to always play it cool but I could barely talk right when the meeting started. I got my words all jumbled up and I'm sure it was plenty obvious. I got it together though and I can't even begin to describe how pumped I was walking out of his office.
