"Well done! You guys are amazing! ”

Yi Fan was so excited that he couldn't describe it, and at this moment he was happier than his victory.

"Nice, your hand is okay!"

Nick leaned in for the first time. There is no doubt that Nice's injury affected the performance and the matchup between the two men.

"It's fine, but the next game won't be played."

Nice gave him a hug, and although he didn't play 100 per cent, he did his best 120 per cent.

Armin was silent on the sidelines, there was the glory of the victor, and there was the gloom of the loser. They also put a lot of effort into this competition.

Nearly ten hours of uninterrupted high-intensity muscle exercises every day, dozens of 80 kilometers per hour ball machine catching exercises, and hundreds of special training for flag pulling.

He didn't understand why he would lose to such a third-rate team in the end with so much effort.

At this moment, a special voice sounded in his ears.

"Armin, while it may hurt your heart to say this, it doesn't help to say it now. But there are some things that still have to be explained to you, and I still have to apologize to you. ”

Armin's voice was also familiar to him, and when he turned his head, he saw two people standing behind him, one was Robert, and the other was a slightly chubby man with gray hair.

"Coach Patterson!" Armin was surprised. The man in front of him is none other than the NCAA powerhouse, the head coach of the Miami Hurricanes, Patterson.

When Armin was a student, he was at the helm of the Hurricanes, and he still is. Under his direction, the Hurricanes have won the Atlantic Coast League Coastal Division for three consecutive years.

"Coach Patterson, why are you here?" Armin stuttered a little.

He admires the coach very much, and after he took the helm of the team, the Miami Hurricanes became the dominant team in the division, ranking in the top three of the division for so many years, and cultivating a large number of new players for the NFL. Before applying for university, Almin already admired the famous player.

Unexpectedly, after joining the team, before Almin could contact Coach Patterson, he was switched to running back by Robert, and he was seriously injured, and his career as an athlete ended before it began.

Patterson looked at Almin with his wise eyes, and after a long silence, he slowly spoke, "It's gratifying to see that you're still in rugby. Being so badly injured and still being able to stick to your hobby shows that you really love rugby. ”

Armin bowed his head silently, if he had been a student in the school, he would have been burning with excitement when he could hear Patterson's words.

But now, he didn't have the slightest desire to be happy. dragging such an illness out, let alone playing again, even daily life is inconvenient.

"Originally, even if it wasn't for Robert, I would have advocated that you switch to running back. If it hadn't been for that accident, I'm confident that you'd already be a player on the grass of the league. At this, Patterson looked sorry. He sees people very accurately, and with Armin's talent and unyielding character, he will definitely be able to make some achievements.

"Coach, it's too late to say anything. I'm just a wreck, not much use. Armin replied with a wry smile.

Unexpectedly, Patterson looked very angry after hearing this, and the flesh on his face shook a little. He shouted, "No, your career is not over yet, rather, it has just begun, and for this reason I am here." I watched the game just now, it was very exciting, both teams fought until the last minute. Although your team has a lead in terms of individual ability, the team is far ahead of you in terms of team coordination and tactical arrangement. ”

With that, Patterson handed a small notebook to Armin.

'It's a little bit of coaching I've learned over the years and I don't get a chance to give you any guidance when you're a player. Now that you have become a mentor, I hope that these experience methods can help you, and it can be regarded as some small compensation. ”

Armin was a little flattered, he didn't expect Coach Patterson to give him something so important. You know, there are tens of millions of rugby concepts and tactics, and everyone has their core ideas and heritage, which are the essence of countless games, and the most valuable experience that cannot be seen in books and cannot be bought by any amount of money.

Later, Patterson and Robert walked up to Yi Fan again. Seeing Yi Fan's yellow skin and black eyes, Patterson looked surprised.

"Is he really Chinese? Not of Chinese descent? It's amazing to be able to grow to this level in just over a year. Robert, you can be proud to have such a student. ”

Robert didn't expect Patterson to give Yifan such a high rating. After all, a star like Patterson has seen thousands of students, many of whom are rookie players in the league. But as far as Robert knows, he rarely appreciates people so directly.

Yi Fan looked a little flattered, he didn't know who the man in front of him was, but he could feel the self-explanatory aura on the other party, and this oppressive force was even much stronger than when he faced Johnson's head coach.

Patterson nodded and said, "I'm looking forward to what level you can grow." It's a pity that with the current Wolverine team, I'm afraid there is no chance. ”

Whether it is complimenting or belittling himself, Yifan feels that it doesn't matter. But when he heard that this man actually underestimated his team, he couldn't bear it.

"Sir, I beg you to retract what you have just said. We're a strong team, even if it's not a good season, but I'm sure we're still a first-class team. ”

"Liu, Mr. Patterson, he didn't mean that." Robert tried to explain, but was stopped by Patterson.

He smiled and said, "I don't mean to belittle your team, but your growth needs to play against more strong players." But the current Wolverine team is afraid that they are not even qualified to participate in the national championship. Without a bigger stage, your ceiling can only be like this. ”

Patterson shrugged helplessly. He was telling the truth, and everyone could hear that. After all, this year's Wolverines are simply blind. With such a result, it is basically impossible to be selected for the wild card of the national championship.

Patterson is not alone. The entire Wolverines thought the same thing, including Johnson. That's why in the post-Christmas period, the team was given a break to rest, readjusted, and the whole team ushered in a period of reorganization.

Unlike the strong teams that are about to participate in various bowl competitions or national championships, the weak teams are often able to complete the team reorganization one step ahead of time in the past two months and win the starting line for the new season.
