When I was a rookie, what motivated me was trying to win Rookie of the Year and play the best that I could that I would compete so hard.

Michael Carter-Williams

Personally, I want to win rookie of the year.

Kevin Knox

Ultimately I want to win. That's my main focus as my rookie year.

Kevin Knox

There are a lot of things that you learn as a rookie and you grow the most, I would say as a rookie from your first year to your second year.

Matt Cassel

It's an honor to win the Sir Henry Cotton Rookie of the Year award.

Peter Uihlein

Going into my rookie year I expect to play well and I expect to win a lot of games.

Joe Burrow

I've always felt like the most improvement you can make is from year 1 to year 2, much like a college freshman who the most improvement he can make in an entire one year of college football is going from year 1 freshman year to his sophomore year. Like a pro football player going from his rookie season to his second season. There's a window there that will never come again that you have a chance to making your biggest strides.

Jim Harbaugh

Out of high school, I was, like, 202-205 pounds. My rookie season, I was, like, 245; my second year, I was 255. My third year, I got up to like 272, and I tore my ACL. I don't know if my weight was part of the cause of that, but I got hurt, so I just tried to re-evaluate my situation.

Von Miller

For me, I spent four years at Duke, and I was 22 my rookie year. For a lot of guys, I was old as a rookie, but nothing could prepare me for the NBA, both on the court and off the court.

J. J. Redick

Not all rookie lessons are learned on the hardwood. There are factors like rookie duties and building team camaraderie.

Jordan Clarkson

I heard so much negative about the rookie year, but it really wasn't like that for me.

Cedi Osman

Veterans get priority in the training room and better parking, but there is not a whole lot of difference in terms of how they're treated in the competition for playing time. To me it doesn't matter if a guy is a 10-year veteran or a rookie. If the rookie is better, he finds his way onto the field.

Brendan Daly

I almost got traded my rookie year or my second year in the league.

Mike Conley Jr.

I always end up saying, whether it being my rookie year, not playing as many games as I should have with the new coaching and whatnot, and then my injury and my suspension, I feel like every year, it's always been something, you know what I mean?
