This is a really interesting read about Jack Trice, the player. There is some stuff in there I hadn't heard before.

My thoughts just before the first real college game of my life: The honor of my race, family & self is at stake. Everyone is expecting me to do big things. I will. My whole body and soul are to be thrown recklessly about the field tomorrow. Every time the ball is snapped, I will be trying to do more than my part. On all defensive plays I must break through the opponents' line and stop the play in their territory. Beware of mass interference. Fight low, with your eyes open and toward the play. Watch out for crossbacks and reverse end runs. Be on your toes every minute if you expect to make good. Jack.[1]

I wonder if the Bolded part is where the Basket ball team got their idea for the I will posters?

Sure was, and it was more of a marketing department/poster outsource decision.
