I've coached highschool football for around 7 years and I'll play a kid who works hard every day over a really good athelete who goes half speed at practice and dogs it. I know when the games on the line and were behind the kid who busts his butt every day will bust his butt to do whatever he has to do to help the team. The great athelete who dogs it in conditioning and goes half speed in team o or d will not give his all when the games on the line and It looks like a big "L" . If he goes half speed during sprints, He'll go half speed when there's 2 minutes to go and your down 13. The way you practice is the way you play!
How many of you has known a great athelete, but he never gave his all at practice and sure enough when the game was on the line, he let you down.
Retrospect, How many of you knew a teammate that was not a great athelete but worked hard every day and made a good football player?
