[QUOTE="dtm1997, post: 217794, member: 572"] Here were two of, what I thought were, the key questions. Q: Would you run through a brick wall for him? A: I'd run through a brick wall for him. I feel like whatever leader you have should definitely be 10-toes behind the head coach. I believe in respect the traditional way, you know what I'm saying? I'm gonna ride with him regardless. But still, it's bittersweet because I've still got this stuff on my mind. I've still got the fact that you sat me on the bench last year when I was struggling. When I needed an extra push, I got pulled. So I feel like the bitter part just came with him not trusting and not believing in me. Like, point-blank simple. Q: When you watch coaches interact with players, sometimes you'll see them put their arm around them and it looks like there's love there, you know? And by the time they're ready to graduate, guys are crying because it feels like it's a family, right? I don't see that much with you all. A: One of the best feelings of my life was to feel like I could move forward. The feeling that I can move forward. Not so literal, but I felt like ropes were on my back. Now I just feel free. For four years, I felt like I was playing for something that was unstable. Now I feel like I got a solid foundation to play for, because I'm playing for myself. I know what I'm doing. And you can check the facts on that. We done had four new (assistant) coaches (in his four years at Memphis). Fifteen transfers. And everything else. And two strength coaches being fired. So you can add all that in there, too. [/QUOTE]
