LB/FB McBride used football to ‘fill void’ at home

LB/FB Darien McBride first got into to football as a way of channelling all the ā€œaggressionā€ that he had built up as a result of coming from ā€œa little bit of a rough upbringing at home.ā€

ā€œI looked to coaches and players to fill a lot of empty spaces in my life at the time,ā€ he said. ā€œDue to that fact I now view football as a whole as one big family, no matter who it is in the program, a family member, player or coach, I feel we all have a connection through the work and dedication that goes into every aspect. Thatā€™s what itā€™s all about to me.ā€
