THE PLAYBOOK
The playbook is crucial to a player's development. This was the biggest difference between high school and college football, learning plays and concepts as opposed to chasing the ball. Doing your job, and trusting your teammates to come through. This was a valuable lesson, and is still applicable today.

All people of different populations can always take a note or two from Tim Tebow about hard work.
