Two things:

1. Good Lawdy, she is hot!

2. Did she just speak to the team this April or was that a year ago?

Thanks for posting.

Best part of the article:

Then came her mic-drop moment.

"Do what I did for four years. Compete like SEC champions. Compete like national championships. And compete like [expletive] Gators!"

The room cheered.

"Maybe it wasn't very lady like, but you have to speak to your audience," McMurtry said. "If Dan Mullen can talk to Gators like that, I figured I could, too."

While the NFL is a lofty goal for them, it is only a minute part of their total life.

This is great and of course people can learn in a variety of ways.

I thought it was a typo in the thread title.

How does an athlete become a 22 time AA in a 4 year college career?

Multiple events; beam, vault, floor, etc. It's like swimmer that does the 100, 200, relay, etc. Or a track star that does the 100, 400, relays, etc.

Very impressive.

Having a 5'3 blonde chick tell you to compete like ****ing Gators ought to get your fired up to kill someone.

I’m guessing in different events?

And since none of them would have any chance of doing what she did they should carefully look at the process that she used, that is what she talked about and what is so important.

Alex worked her ass off to become one of the best Gator athletes of all time. Coaches can speak and motivate, but when you hear that from a fellow Gator great that should motivate you like nothing else. I love that Mullen did that and hope he continues to do this sort of speaking arrangements.

Mullen is bringing back a standard that I was afraid had disappeared from our beloved University as it has from society in general.

It is not for your average, run of the mill, athlete.

Imagine how different the program would be had we went hard after Mullen when Urban retired the first time.

Maybe the thread title should be, "Compete like %$$%##& Gators." That works for every one of us.
