Where he’s come from in the first two weeks I was here and the issues he and I had, to now where he is completely on board. He’s doing everything we’re asking. That’s one of the beauties of coaching. To see that, to have that relationship with a player, to be a part of bringing him to a place where he’s firing on all cylinders, it’s great.

I love this more than I really know how to say. On one hand, it’s amazing to be able to hear this sort of transparency from Mike Petke, to know that there was a problem, and we weren’t imagining it.
