Can't remember exactly when, but I believe it was the second half. Things were starting to get away from us but I saw 55 make some plays and show fight. There was a particular sequence where he he made some plays and looked fired up like he was pushing back against the inevitable with everything he had. Looked like his true character coming through despite the circumstances.
What struck me is he appeared to be doing all he could to impose his will and not concede to defeat. He was not willing to accept losing or less then 100% effort. It really stood out to me.
I thought of this because of another thread talking about a few guys who didn't seem to care and referencing a larger culture problem. But here is a freshman, the future of the program and a leader, showing just the kind of thing we need more of.
At this point I'm focused on the long game, and that really made an impression on me.
In the middle of what was feeling like SOS (same old ****), that jumped off the screen because it looked...different.
