Super Bowl Domination

Chapter 562: Reunion with Mentor

In last season's NCAA, the Alabama Crimson Tide defeated the Georgia Bulldogs in overtime with a free kick in the national championship game, completing a glorious three-peat and establishing a dynasty again.

It is very regrettable that running back Jacobs lost to quarterback Mayfield in the Heisman Trophy selection and was unable to complete the unprecedented running back three consecutive championships, but Alabama is indeed at its peak.

Everything is on the right track.

Next, the Alabama Crimson Tide is preparing to strive for its fourth consecutive championship.

As you can imagine, when Levi saw Burns in the coaching team, he was happy, but his first reaction was surprise and surprise.

After all, as a core member of the coaching staff who has been with Shaban for more than twelve years, Burns must have received countless invitations from other NCAA teams and professional leagues over the years, but Burns is a man without ambition. He has no extravagant expectations for the job of head coach and is always content with the status quo.

Now, it actually appears here!

So, what happened?
Just now, Burns himself mentioned Shaban, but he didn't expect that when Levi mentioned Shaban now, Burns' face changed without warning.

"Don't mention him to me, that guy is out of his mind."

Levi: …

Burns saw Levi's stunned expression and immediately calmed down, wondering how he could have scared the kid. He looked around at the other coaches and players of the Kansas City Chiefs and quickly controlled his temper.

Originally, Burns wanted Levi to focus on training and not worry about other trivial matters; but after thinking about it, Levi was not an ordinary child and would not be distracted easily. If he continued to conceal the situation and the rumors reached Levi's ears, it would be bad.

then.

Burns gestured to the front and said, "Take me to get to know the way."

Talk while walking.

"Ugh."

With a sigh, Burns told the story as concisely as possible.

In the middle of last year's season, the Alabama Crimson Tide had been on a winning streak, but Shaban had health problems and was almost hospitalized due to heart problems. He also realized that the pressure of the game was breaking down his body.

Moreover, I am lacking in energy.

The Alabama Crimson Tide has been winning this past season and still has an advantage, but it has stumbled along the way and faced many challenges.

At that time, Shaban thought he should retire at the peak of his career.

Shaban is 68 years old this year and has long reached retirement age. He has left countless records in the NCAA and is now at an insurmountable peak. Instead of being expelled in a miserable state when he is on the decline, it is better to leave behind an admirable and respected figure when he is in his glory.

Burns agrees.

Burns is only one year younger than Shaban and is also 67 years old this year.

Burns is a person who is indifferent to fame and fortune. He has no great aspirations or ambitions. Although he is reluctant to leave the young running backs in the team, he seems very decisive when talking about retirement.

then.

In the second half of the season, Shaban and Burns began to train their own successors. Even if they left the University of Alabama, they did not want the Red Tide to fall into trouble. Shaban even announced that he would choose a successor within the team.

In the NCAA, Shaban is the king.

Being able to take over from Shaban at this time will not only make him the head coach of the Crimson Tide, but will also attract the attention of the NCAA and the NFL. This is a great opportunity for a career breakthrough, and all coaches are ready to make a move.

All eighteen martial arts are used up.

Everything came to a perfect ending just like a Hollywood fairy tale. The Alabama Crimson Tide won the overtime victory and became the national champion, completing its three consecutive championships, which brought a perfect end to Shaban's legendary coaching career.

If Shaban retires.

However, it did not.

Shaban regretted it. After the red tide storm reached the top, Shaban felt energetic again, and the excitement of his blood boiling and heart pounding made it difficult for him to turn around and leave.

Shaban decided to stay again.

Because of this incident, Shaban and Burns had an argument.

Burns believes that the coaching staff will definitely feel betrayed. They are showing off themselves one by one, and even attacking their competitors overtly or covertly, just aiming at the position of successor; if Shaban stays, the atmosphere of the team will collapse.

Shaban didn't care. This was his team, his legacy, his kingdom. If he didn't give it to them, they couldn't take it away. He was the only one who had the decision-making power. He even said something that hurt Burns.

"Including you."

Burns was really angry. He was ready to retire anyway, so he had a falling out with Shaban, slammed the door and left the team.

Burns submitted his resignation letter, and the University of Alabama completed all the formalities in less than an hour. This was obviously Shaban's instruction, which cut off Burns' last attachment and he turned and left.

The red tide storm was just as expected.

Shaban's decision to stay caused an earthquake, but Shaban showed his decisive side. He directly cleared out most of the coaching team and reorganized the coaching team in the ruins. Before causing more chaos, the University of Alabama had already entered the preparation for the new season.

As Burns said, in the NCAA, Shaban is the king.

At the same time, Burns, who was unemployed and retired at home, was content. Despite continuous invitations, Burns rejected them all. It was not until the Kansas City Chiefs, who were in urgent need of a running back coach after the internal reform of the coaching staff, appeared that Veach visited Burns in person.

No one knows what Veitch and Burns said.

Burns had no intention of telling Levi.

However, from the look of satisfaction on Burns' face as he looked at Levi, perhaps we could get a glimpse of the truth.

"...Coach, are you sure it's okay?" Levi did not hide his concern. "Coach Shaban was just impulsive. He may regret it."

Burns waved his hand, "Son, life is short, and I don't want to waste time on regrets and hesitations."

Seeing that Levi was about to speak, Burns had already changed the subject, "Let's see how to make good use of your abilities this year."

"How about it, what did you train during the off-season?"

Burns is still Burns. When he talks about running backs, his eyes light up like a child, with a sincerity that never fades.

As he spoke, he looked at Levi carefully, wishing he could start training right away; but at the same time, he was immersed in his own world, completely forgetting himself.

He clearly asked Levi, but did not give Levi a chance to answer.

"Oh, yes, there's a surprise this time."

Levi: Anything else?
"Ronnie, hey, Ronnie, aren't you going to say hello to the old buddy?"

Following Burns' line of sight, Levi saw a figure.

Slightly stunned.

The sunlight shines on your face and pierces your eyes, causing a slight sting and warmth.

Because the sun is too glaring, that must be the reason.

The tip of her nose felt a little sour, but a smile still crept up to the corners of her mouth and blossomed completely as she looked at the slightly uneasy figure in front of her with a restrained smile.

"Hey, Master, it seems that you have finally chosen a path of no return."

what.

Ronnie Clark couldn't hold back his laughter and it burst out of his chest.
