Atlanta, night was falling.
Jacobs slightly lifted his chin, watching on the TV screen Henry and Li Wei—
They were truly exceptional.
Not only had they led Crimson Tide Storm to the top of the nationwide championship, but they also shone on the professional league's playoff stage, where each player played a good half, entwined until the final two minutes determined the winner.
He, too, hoped to be like them one day.
Instinctively, Jacobs straightened up, his chest inflamed with a soaring fighting spirit.
This scene, caught in Saban's eyes, flickered with a touch of gratification:
Not just Jacobs and Clark, the running backs, were inspired, but Hertz's youngsters, after two seasons of breaking through, were robustly growing. Seeing Li Wei, who had fought alongside them last year, now shining on the professional stage and transforming through each game, these youths couldn't help but become impassioned.
It was no different for Saban himself.
