In the weeks leading up to the biggest battle of his quarterbacking life, Matt Fink has not lacked for inspiration. He and his father, Mike, are die-hard Philadelphia Eagles fans, and they made sure to get a copy of Nick Foles’ recently released autobiography “Believe It,” which chronicles the Eagles quarterback’s rise from discarded backup to improbable Super Bowl champion to, as it currently stands, New York Times bestselling author.
“We’ve already been through it,” said Mike, who hails from Redding, Pa., “and it’s quite a story. In some ways, it’s very similar to Matt.”
As Mike Fink talked, it was just days away from the start of USC’s fall camp.
