WATCH: one of the most incredible acts of kindness took place in Andrews Thursday night.
November 2025 in Texas
In the Bi-District playoff game between Sundown Roughnecks and Wink Wildcats, Wink was comfortably ahead late in the fourth quarter. Sundown had a senior player, Kolt McDaniel, who has special needs and had never scored a touchdown in his high school career.
With 22 seconds left and the game already decided, Sundown’s coaches asked Wink’s head coach Brian Gibson if their team could let Kolt score.
Coach Gibson didn’t hesitate: he pulled his defense off the field entirely, told his players to let Kolt run untouched into the end zone.
Kolt McDaniel scored his first and only career touchdown.
The Sundown sideline, the fans, and even many Wink players and fans erupted in cheers.
After the play, players from both teams met at midfield to celebrate Kolt together.Wink won the game, but everyone who was there (and everyone who saw the video afterward) agrees the real winners that night were Texas high school football and basic human decency.
Coach Gibson later said, “It wasn’t even a question. That’s what this game is supposed to be about.”
The moment went viral across Texas and beyond as one of the purest examples of sportsmanship you’ll ever see.

“It’s not what you’re capable of. It’s what you’re willing to do.”

Many are capable.
Very few are willing.
That’s the separator.

“It shouldn’t be needed…I never wanted to miss a game, because it was an opportunity to prove — I want to impress that guy, way up in the top, who worked his a*s off to come and watch me”

Jack Daniels, the legendary running coach and exercise physiologist, has died at the age of 92. 🕊️

He was a collegiate swimmer in the 50s and earned degrees from Colorado School of Mines and the University of Montana (double major in physical education and math) before serving in the U.S. Army in Korea. He earned a team silver medal and a team bronze medal in the modern pentathlon at the 1956 and 1960 Olympics, respectively. His curiosity about elite performance is what eventually drove him to running and more degrees from the University of Oklahoma (M.Ed.) and University of Wisconsin (Ph.D. in Exercise Physiology).

Daniels’ genius lay in combining cutting-edge science with genuine care for runners of all levels. From Olympic champions to recreational joggers. He coached at Oklahoma City University, Texas and SUNY Cortland (where he led 8 NCAA Division III national titles and 130+ All-Americans from 1986 to 2003), NAU, Brevard College and Wells College. Nike also hired him in the 80s as a researcher and physiologist and he helped athletes like Joan Benoit Samuelson prepare for the 1984 Olympic Trials, where she won gold.

Most notably, he developed the VDOT concept: a practical proxy for VO₂ max that incorporates efficiency, mental toughness, and race performance. He’s also best known for publishing the Daniel’s Running Formula, which pulled together his decades of training philosophy into formulas focused on allowing runners to train at the right intensity to improve.

News of his death was first reported by Runner’s World.

If your habits don’t match your goals and dreams, adjust your habits. And if you won’t change your habits, then be honest enough to change your goals—but don’t lie to yourself.

Effort isn’t just trying hard for a while—it’s consistent, focused, and adaptable action over time. That’s what reality rewards.
