MURFREESBORO, Tenn. — My favorite bit of content our team in the Athletic Communications office captures during fall camp is the player speeches at team meetings.
I first became aware of this during the production of our docu-series "The Countdown" during last year's camp, when in episode two, Nicholas Vattiato stood up in front of his teammates about two and a half minutes into the episode and had the whole team raise their hands as high as they could, then raise them even higher.
The quarterback's point, of course, was that either his teammates didn't actually raise their hand as high as they could or, perhaps more importantly, they thought they had raised it as high as possible, but still had a bit higher to go.
