Grasshoppers, attend to the wisdom of JT Daniels.
That second quote sounds like something Monken tells him.

It is in his bones like no one I’ve ever seen. What Gandolfini had with Jersey, JT has with Cali.

I like how he came dressed like Jules and Vincent from Pulp Fiction.
Seriously disappointed not one reporter asked him about what they call a Quarter Pounder in France.

Maybe the first time I’ve ever watched a full interview session like that. A few observations, FWIW:
he calls his coach “Monken.” Thought that was as California Cool as it gets.
he handles himself very well in the spotlight.
only one question about his ACL injury and it wasn’t the “why didn’t you start sooner?” question we all expected.

JT really lit up when asked about Beck and called him “game ready”!! That’s pretty high praise coming from the guy in front of you. He was also very complimentary of the QB room as a whole. Those are great, team building statements. You can tell he’s impressed with the talent he has to work with on the O.

JT talking about the greatest strength is the versatility of the offense:
“So many guys you can out in so many places”
Love hearing that!

That second quote is exactly how professional athletes and musicians continue to develop their craft. Job number 1 is to work the fundamentals (easy stuff) every day. Job number 2 is to get your brain out of the way and let your body do what it knows how to do. Inner game of Tennis inspired a lot of people to adapt the lessons to all manner of things. (Yes, I have an education degree from our beloved school)

Regarding those odds…. I want to say Gilbert’s eligibility and Daniels seeming extremely confident in himself, the system, and his teammates has carried those odds a long way. But I also wonder if they know something we don’t.

JTD: “At our best we do simple better than the team we play against. “
Man that statement is a strong candidate for quote of the year much less the month?

He definitely does simple better than Grantham. Not that it’s a high bar.
