People cared about everybody in the building , there's nobody left behind . And I just think having that overall team closeness and the chemistry makes a big difference because when you have guys that can look to the right and left and they trust a person there that's a brother to them . And I think that pushes people and makes them work harder .
I mean , that just makes my job easier . I think the biggest takeaway I take from being on the national championship team is , uh , just like the overall team chemistry . And one thing that sticks with me through high school is my coach had a saying that he always said , and it was to have a good team .
And I think that pushes people and makes them work harder . And that also helps get through adversities cause a lot of programs you see , there's not good team chemistry when adversity hits , they fall apart , but being able to kind of come together and , and stick together as a unit makes a big difference when it comes to , to winning , you know , an overtime game against Alabama in the Rose Bowl . Uh If I had to tell my younger self , any advice , I would just say to trust myself .
I think the biggest takeaway I take from being on the national championship team is , uh , just like the overall team chemistry . And one thing that sticks with me through high school is my coach had a saying that he always said , and it was to have a good team . You have to have coaches who care about coaches , coaches who care about players , players who care about coaches and players who care about players .
So that was kind of my recruiting process with Michigan . So on the field , I think the biggest things coaches are looking for is your leadership , your , your mentality and just how hard of a worker you are . I know , uh , the coach I mentioned earlier who gave me the advice about , there's always somebody working harder .
