Chiefs News: Patrick Mahomes tells grads “Win your Super Bowl”
Chiefs news revolves around how quarterback Patrick Mahomes gave the commencement speech to the Texas Tech graduating class. “Go out and win your Super Bowl” Mahomes said to the graduates.
Before Patrick Mahomes was winning Super Bowls and MVP titles for the Kansas City Chiefs, he was a gunslinging quarterback at Texas Tech University. He’s still praised at his alma mater and was chosen to give the commencement speech to the 2020 graduating class.
Obviously things are pretty crazy in the world right now and – as a result – graduations can’t take place in person. Most have gone virtual or were rescheduled for later in the summer (assuming things improve by then).
That didn’t stop KC Chiefs quarterback Patrick Mahomes from giving the Class of 2020 a speech to motivate the heck out of them.
"“Remember, this is a day to celebrate, to look back on the friends you made, the professors who have changed your life and the memories that you will cherish forever. Whatever plans lie in front of you, I have no doubt you will go out there and show the world what it means to come from Lubbock, Texas. Go out and win your Super Bowl. Congrats, Class of 2020. I can’t wait to see what you do next.”"
Mahomes’ words applies to graduates – and even people – everywhere. No one anticipated things would be like this, but all we can do is keep working hard to accomplish our goals.
