���You can���t do it [all]
right away,��� Grace said
during Notre Dame���s
preparations for Alabama in early January.
���You just have to work
on your game piece by
piece and hopefully put
it all together and just
keep building like a pyramid to get to the top
and be the best player
you can be.

going to prepare us the
right way and we���re
going to train the right
way. We���ll always have
the right game plan for
the players to make the
plays. That���s all I���m really going to focus on.

that [Mike] role or not,
I���m just trying to be the
best player I can be.���
For now, he is in the
midst of his own ���Grace
