Dan Campbell said, “What makes us what we are? And what we’re going to be? I think it’s that right there. It’s ππππ.”

“It means we’re unbreakable.”
ππππ isn’t not talent or luck, it’s your ability to have stamina and endure.

Games usually sort into three types:
- One team is superior and wins on talent.
- Teams are somewhat evenly matched and one team wins on the sum of making more plays, resilience (mental and physical toughness), and luck
- One team is the underdog but in the moment summons their talent, togetherness, resilience, and luck.
The first 'prototype' means winning the games you're supposed to win.
The second is winning "tossup" or "pick 'em" games.
The third is having the grit to win games few people give you a chance to win.
"Signature wins" aren't borne of the first, sometimes the second, but especially arise from the latter.
The best coaches get the most from the players they have. Some coaches assemble all-star teams and earn praise by winning with overwhelming force. Meh. MVB will have a mixture of experience and youth and need a high level of grit. Be up for that.
