“Not because of the physical things, but because I need motivation every day, to go to practice, to get ready for the season … I don’t want to disappoint anybody, I don’t want to disappoint myself, but I don’t want to disappoint the people that helped me, and I think in this case, I don’t feel that way it’s better to say goodbye.”
