But, uh, but certainly as I've grown older, uh, the coaches who have had the most influence in my life, um, all those lessons have come full, full circle.

We were talking yesterday with your counterpart at Fremd, talking about the amount of time that it takes, not only for your kids, because this is a year-long commitment.

Whether it's in the waiting, weight room or training and, and just being good guys and working in the community, and then, uh, you know, some of the guys, uh, they wrestle, they have other sports.

Two, three, four-sport athletes, but it all comes back to this, uh, to this great game of, uh, football.

Uh, Joe, you sound like a great man and a good role model.

Joe Sanchez is here, head coach at Barrington.
