After 37 years as the department's storyteller, statistician and historian -- Mike Lund is retiring.

“I'm just grateful that I had the opportunity to do what I wanted to do in the place I wanted to do it and have a lot of people I could really care about and that cared about me." -- @mikelund65

Happy retirement, Mike!

Andrew Luck on why you don't rise to the occasion, you settle to the level of your training.

"We practiced those high-pressure situations all the time...If we wanted to go out and compete on gameday it wasn't a 'flip a switch and go.' We learned to compete on the practice field."

Don't expect your team to execute under pressure if you haven't consistently trained under it.

Athletes rarely outperform the environments they've consistently trained in.
