Phillip Lindsay is so amped up on the football field that Colorado head coach Mike MacIntyre calls him the Tasmanian devil.
When Lindsay talks, his words are just as quick.
Lindsay's father, Troy, laughed at that and admitted, "Sometimes I have to slow him down."
It's not easy to reduce Phillip's speed, but over the years, Troy has learned a few secrets. That's one of the tasks of being a dad, and in 30 years of being in that job, Troy has proven to be pretty good.
"He's a great dad, one of them fairy tale kind of dads," Phillip said.
