In getting the award, head coach Kevin O’Connell presented Jefferson the award and had an announcement for the team
“We’re going to go in between the fields and I’m always going to be the guy that gets slimed.”
We have talked a lot in this space about it being a new era and this is just the latest example bring the old Nickelodeon show Slime Time Live to TCO Performance Center. O’Connell bonding with his players has created a different atmosphere both in the building and on the field.
