Man…what a year! 86 points given up in 12 games. 19 points given up at home all season. 7 defensive TDs. 5 shutouts, 8 games without allowing a TD. Fell short in the end, but a special group I’ll remember forever. The best defense in WP history! #OTP

Daunte Culpepper reveals why he chose UCF after major programs stopped recruiting him, says Coach Paul Lounsberry had a plan for him and believed in him when nobody else did

“Coach pulled me out of class. He said, ‘Daunte, I'm just telling you right now. I talked to a few college coaches. They don't think you're going to be eligible. They're taking you off the recruiting list. You probably got to go JUCO or do something else.’ That made me feel bad.”

“But the next day, Coach L comes to the school and calls me into the principal's office. He said, ‘Daunte, I'm looking at your transcripts, and I looked at what you need to graduate. If you take this class over, this class over, this class over…’ I only needed one credit to graduate.”

“I had done enough to graduate, but I wasn't going to be eligible to get into the clearinghouse to go to college. So I had to make a decision. I had to grow up a little bit. My senior year at Vanguard, on the football field we were excelling, getting all these accolades.”

“But in school, I'm in freshman classes. People thought I was actually dumb. Like, ‘Why is this senior, this big old 17-, 18-year-old kid, in these freshman classes?’ All the stuff I failed the years before, I had to take those classes over.”

“I had to swallow my pride a little bit. Because I had a vision. I want to be the first one in my family to go to college. I'm going to college. So I ended up taking Coach's advice, getting eligible. Once the word got out, all these coaches calling me.”

“I'm like, ‘Damn, where y'all was when I needed y'all?’ I needed Coach L. He figured out a way for me to do it. I called. I said, ‘Coach, I'm coming to UCF.’”

Average players goof around until it's their turn at practice.

Better players watch whoever goes before them.

Good players notice what the player did right or wrong.

Great players LEARN when the coach corrects someone else... so they don't waste a rep making the same mistake.
