Our guys have bought in and done everything we've asked them to do since I got hired in December and really fired up about what we're getting done right now. I know every head coach is going to talk about his team and how excited he is about them, I'm no exception. We have the second highest graduation success rate in the SEC, and I'm proud of what our young guys are doing off the field in South Carolina and really proud of what they're doing on the field. 22 of our guys made the dean's list this past semester. 12 more we'll have that will graduate in December as well at the end of our season. Kingsley and Nick have both graduated, along with 18 other guys on our team that have graduated as well. They're just two of the guys doing a great job for us academically in our football program. They're tough, they're talented, they're gritty, they're competitive, and both have great futures ahead of them in football.

They're leading guys on and off the feel. Kingsley won the Most Outstanding Defensive Player during spring practice. Nick won our Most Outstanding Offensive Player during spring practice.

Two young men that did not have to come back for another season, had opportunities to leave South Carolina and continue their playing career at the professional level, chose to come back, chose to come back for the right reasons, and have been fantastic leaders for us since that day. Those two guys, really appreciate their leadership in our program since the day that I got hired. I've been working with him on the pronunciation of one that as well. Really appreciate you being a part of this today.Įxcited about the two young men I have with me today, Nick Muse and Kingsley J.J. Hope all of you are having an awesome summer. So certainly thankful for his leadership.Īppreciate you guys and the job that all of you do in covering our sport. Being part of Zoom calls with him with the other head coaches and following his leadership, fortunate for his leadership last summer in allowing us to have a college football season and the way, the path that he led throughout the country, along with some other commissioners, to allow us to play. Being back in this conference now as a head football coach, that respect for him has only grown in the seven months since I've been back in this league. He's someone, he mentioned it in the introduction, but someone I've had a lot of respect for for a long, long, long time. I want to thank Greg Sankey for his leadership. Certainly was working to get my job done in Oklahoma, but always had an eye on this league as well.

I've told Greg before, when I was in Oklahoma working as an assistant coach, I had a TV in my office, and most days that TV in my office was on the SEC Network and watching Paul Finebaum and Peter Burns and Alyssa Lang and people like that.
