Well, football pulls him back.

And of course, he ends up at Miami of Ohio is where he gets his first college coaching gig.

And he's not there for too long.

He has pretty immediate success, gets recruited to go coach at Indiana, has success there, helps a couple running backs to the NFL.

And he gets nominated for Coach of the Year honors.

And he starts doing some coaching internships in the NFL and really starts to set his sights on some bigger programs and the opportunities at the pro level.

He ends up doing one of his coaching internships actually with the Seattle Seahawks, which is where Coach Sherman Smith was coaching under Pete Carroll.

And he gets a chance to really use his skill set.

In some of the other internships, they kind of just had him watch.

But Coach Sherman Smith puts him right in there.

And he starts to recognize pretty immediately, Dillon does, that his coaching style is really similar to his old coach.

He really picked up a lot of messages from him as, I'm going to be a role model and a leader.

I'm going to treat these guys like full human beings.

I'm not trying to scare them into anything.

I'm going to give them respect and they're going to give me respect in turn.

The guys think that he's being a giant kiss ass, that he's just really trying to impress everyone and show them that he's deserving of a spot in the NFL.

And they're making fun of him for copying everything Sherman does.

You walk like him, you talk like him, you want to be him.

And he kind of is at first a little embarrassed.

And then he realizes, I don't care if they know that this is how bad I want it.
