‘”Games aren’t won on paper,” McDermott said. “I mean that’s truth. Games aren’t won on paper. That’s the mindset we’ve embraced since we showed up here. If games are won on paper, we would have probably won two or three games the first year. That’s probably what we were projected to win, a handful of games the next year and over a handful of games last year. I think that in it of itself is a great lesson for our football team. Like I said before, this is a sign of respect in terms of expectations. When expectations rise, it’s a sign of respect that people have for what we’ve done and how we do things. That said, we embrace it. It’s not going away. So we embrace it and we move forward. At the same time, staying the course and knowing that we’ve got to earn it.”‘
