Linebackers:
Here’s how you watch film:
Pause the play right after the snap.
Look at your keys.
Try to guess the play.
Then let the play run and see if you’re right.
Do that enough and the game will slow down.
Rori Harmon stuck up for Madison Booker at the podium and consoled her after the game in the hallway...
She gave her reasoning after a question from @_dannydavis
"Mental health is a really big deal and I understand Maddie didn't play her best game and she really thinks it's her fault. When someone thinks that way you console them, that's your teammate, you never make them feel that they're alone...To me she's the best basketball player right now, I don't care about what everybody is saying. Madison Booker is the one"

DON’T PLAY WITH GOD. He can flip your whole story overnight. One moment you’re counted out, the next you’re standing in rooms you never qualified for. Destiny isn’t fragile when God is involved. It’s one instruction away from changing everything.
