Jayden Daniels looks back in his life and I how he got to where he is now

Looks like he had special relationship with Sherman Wilson

“Every day I would think, Did I do enough today to be where I want to be in a couple of years? How can I get better on the little details and take my game to another level? At LSU, I learned how to train like a pro. Preparing as a pro is having consistency in your routine. I wake up at five, watch film at the facility for 45 minutes to an hour, go back home, eat, take a nap if necessary, come back up, take care of my body, and get ready for practice. Eat lunch, go to meetings, extra reps after practice, treatment, watch practice film. You get the idea. And you also have to build in quality time to hang out with your teammates so that you can connect. It’s fully adopting the mentality of first one in, last one out. And that’s something that I embodied this past year.

Sherm.

I owe a huge part of my growth this past season to Sherman Wilson. He works with the team. He’s like a mentor, but also a friend and a brother. This past year he challenged me, and I challenged him. We had that kind of relationship that you build with somebody you really trust, where you guys can challenge each other without feeling any disrespect. He pushed me in my routine. When I’d get up at five o’clock in the morning to watch film, he used to be out there with me. There would be times where we’d be kind of racing to see who could get to the film room first. Bringing that competitive juice to 5 a.m. helped get my game to the next level. And it paid off.“
