from key thompson In particular, I want to reflect his aggression and passion and emotion on the field. Off the field, bryce houston Set an example by picking up other players and young players and actually teaching them strategies.
I want to set an example on and off the field. That's something I'm proud of.
about his goals
TAYLOR: So it's obviously trailing. bryce houston's footsteps [CFN] To be an All-American and All-MAC first team like Key and Bryce. But to be honest, that's secondary to winning the MAC. I don't think there's anything I want more than to win the MAC Championship.
