After a long day of training camp under Coach Bryant one of his players, Billy Schroeder, remembers Coach calling the team down in the middle of the night for a meeting. The team was nervous wondering what did they do to make "The Bear" upset enough to call a meeting in the middle of night. Mr. Schroeder said they walked into a dark meeting room and there was Coach.
"He looked like Moses," said Mr. Schroeder. "He had a bible open, candle lit and a long robe on."
Schroeder said Coach had their full attention as he read a couple bible verses of hope, inspiration, strength and never giving up.
