"If we lost today and I wasn't playing I would kill myself probably." David Mirkovic on his decision to play after being listed as questionable with an ankle injury:

I think bro was being serious 🤣🤣🤣

English not being his first language just makes it better.

More from David Mirkovic on his status today, saying he didn't get much sleep last night and woke up with sharp pain. "Coach came to me at breakfast and said adrenaline is the best drug. When you come out there and see 14,000 drunk fans cussing at you, you're gonna be good."

I am fucking crying 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂

Sneaky funny part of this quote is him just dogging out Northwestern. He was like yea they’re so ass we’d for sure still win even if I didn’t play.

Team psychiatrist seeing this:

Son

May not sound good to the outside but all I hear is a dude who loves his team and wants to win

No media training needed. Full stop. I love him.

Today we learned what not to say to the media in the USA 😂
