"Early on in the year I was driving myself into the ground trying to push everyone and get everyone going. That's when coach said to me 'just worry about the guys who are going to follow you and everyone else will follow those guys and it will be a trickle-down effect.' That's when I finally started to take off and we started to win some games. When I did that, it made things a lot easier."
When you are a leader you can only lead the people that are willing to follow you.
