Coach Ayers is a great speaker and motivator. It's in his roots. Tough guy, tough coach, believable and likable. Couldn't be happier with whom I have entrusted my son's next 4-5 years with.
I attach a video summary of the Hall of Fame speeches this past Saturday. Great speeches all and worthy of a look and listen. But do yourself a favor and make sure you watch Todd Shanesy's snippet at the end. He is intro'd by Coaches Young and Ayers but I dare you to watch his description of the one memory that epitomizes what Wofford athletics and its student-athletes mean to him without a tear and a smile. Way to go, Todd. You nailed it! Kudos and thanks to all! https://www.youtube.com/embed/4-tLIkpmYMA
Thanks Ruck. This video should be required viewing to serve as inspiration for every Wofford student, athlete or not, as he/she formulates and seeks to achieve his/her goals in life.
YIKES Ruck.....I literally just watched those speeches for the first time. What an awesome story and telling description of a short haired dog by Todd. Talk about hitting the nail on the head. MAn that makes you proud!!!!
