Donahue Has Just One Question

According to the SI article, during a tv timeout after the 3rd quarter in the Indiana game, Ricky Stanzi was asked a simple question by a man who has made a career out of asking questions:
Donahue walked over to his quarterback, leaned down and said, "Ready for the greatest quarter of your life?"
Stanzi, who with four picks had just experienced the worst quarter of his life, looked up and replied, "Absolutely."
Now I don't know why Emmy-winning talk show host Phil Donahue was even at the game, much less on our sidelines, but I don't care. All I know is that he brought out the best in our quarterback that day and thus we are indebted to him.
Godspeed, Donahue

Good Lord. Donahue for Heisman!
I also like how saying that to Rick then guaranteed he didn’t have to do a single thing for the rest of the game. Although he didn’t have to do much in the third thanks to Rick either….

I hope Donahue asks Rick if he is ready for the best game of his life today, before the game starts.

What they don't tell you in that article...
is that in the third quarter Stanzi went up to Donahue before a fourth down and said, “Don’t fuckin’ punt the ball 9 yards.”
"I'm not doing any good back here."
