Quote of the day
“It’s time for him to knock on the door. The way you knock on the door is play the system, play with poise and execute. That’s it. He will always bring the energy. He will always bring the fight. He will always bring the finish. That’s not the issue. The issue is prepare, eliminate MEs, play with poise and execute within the realm of the defense. If he does that, he’s going to do great things for us.”
