First game jitters are normal, everyone gets them. Even long-time head coaches like Jimbo Fisher, who felt butterflies just prior to his first game as coach at Texas A&M.
“You’re breaking new ground in new places,” Fisher told reporters Thursday night. “You have to go out there and still play and still coach and do the things you have to do. I have butterflies no matter how long [where] I’m at. It’s just part of the game.”
So it wasn’t a shock, then, to hear that Shawn Robinson had a few nerves himself as he stepped onto the field at Amon G.
