I was having a great time, and they all treated me like they really wanted me. The coaches, the fans and the players all treated me like they wanted me there.”

I was expecting to speak with him, but not then. I felt like I wanted to get padded up and start playing. He told me he hoped I was enjoying the trip and he would like for me to ‘give us a chance.’”
