Welcome to the modern coaching reality: you’re the face of a new SEC program… and still game-planning a College Football Playoff opponent across the country.
Will Stein didn’t pretend it’s simple. But he did make one thing clear — the current locker room in Eugene comes first.
“I mean, it’s not easy,” Stein admitted. “Dan has done it before, so I’m leaning on him. Tosh is in it as well. So it is what it is.”
Translation: this isn’t his first exposure to the juggling act, and he’s borrowing the blueprint from guys who’ve already navigated it.
