This is how it went down.
<Phone call>
Butch: Hey!! How's the best player in the country!!??
Kahlil: Hey coach. You know, I'm just out here grindin' e'ry day.
Butch: I saw that clip of you and some other kid, you ate his lunch... and his daddy's lunch!
Kahlil: Haha.
Butch: Hey, you know what we talked about earlier, with you making the big splash on NSD?
Kahlil: Yep
Butch: This is the thing. You are the foundation of this class. No one can build upwards, until you've laid that foundation. You see where I'm goin' with this?
Kahlil: Yep
Butch: Kahlil, I need you leading your class from the FRONT. We need you on board now, so you can help us bring in champions. I tell you what. Why don't you drop the bomb on e'rybody at The Opening. That way, you can get the coverage that you deserve, and let em' all know up there where THE football is going to be played for the foreseeable future. Can you dig it?
Kahlil: Yeah coach. I think they all know already. Volnation is all about the bucket hat, but let's get this thing going.
Butch: Boom BABY! That's what I like to hear!! That's why you are the leader of this class. Hey, put your dad on the phone, will ya? I want to schedule him in here for a pre-game speech this season.
... and that, ladies and gentlemen, is what has transpired.
