Quotes

  • “A couple of years into the business, I had this light switch go off. My parents taught me everything about basketball, and through basketball, there are so many lessons about life, so many. If I just stay locked in with all the lessons that they gave me, whether it's teamwork, hard work, perseverance, dedication, or sacrifice. All these things can be applied, whether you're in a nine-to-five or you're starting your own business.” -Brad Noll [15:08]

  • “When you don't live with an aim and you don't have that plan or purpose outside of this game, outside of the four lines, it just makes it so tough to have high character. So then that's when I realized I have all these different opportunities and it's because I've sustained character whenever I got benched. Because God worked on my identity and he worked on my character in those moments, I was able to be of high character in those moments.” -Rodney Pryor [29:58]
