Pete Carroll loves to play pranks on his Trojans. Last year the team was surprised by Will Ferrell. This year, Carroll brought in the legendary singer/song writer Bill Withers who pretended to be an NCAA official, warning the student-athletes of a terrible new fungus danger. Withers eventually revealed his identity and played a few bars of Lean on Me for the group. The team recently began singing the hit as a motivational tool after summer practice.
Check out this video of Withers claiming to be an NCAA official warning the student-athletes of a terrible new fungus:

Experience in multiple sports is great for a developing youth. However, success breeds confidence. Bottom line should be life lessons learned.
