“They picked us 12th in the league," McConnell said, echoing his coach’s favorite line. “That’s all I’m going to say about that. They picked us 12th.” (from Politi's good article today)
We've heard Pike say it in EVERY single post-game presser but now we've got Caleb echoing it in public.
At first I thought it was Pike being modest and humble but the more he's saying it, and I do believe he is modest and humble, the more I think it's used as motivation - not cheap words.
The players have clearly bought in and I love the chip on their collective shoulders.
Barring some kind of freaky collapse there's NO way we finish 12th unless it's 12th from the BOTTOM of the league!
Keep pounding nails, boys! Keep winning!
