One player in Monday night's National Championship game between Clemson and Alabama is the perfect example of why you should always chase your dreams, no matter how far they take you and how difficult it may get.

Hunter Renfrow, the Clemson receiver who caught the game-winning touchdown, was a walk-on, but he battled his way into the starting lineup and made a name for himself.

Obviously not every walk-on or late round draft pick makes it, but when one does, it's a nice reminder to all the walk-on players out there to never give up.

This walk-on from Michigan's basketball team got a wonderful surprise for all of his hard work, but the Wolverines had some fun with him first by getting a police officer to tell him his "conduct" had led to campus investigations.

 

Imagine being that player, senior Andrew Dakich. One minute you think you're getting arrested, the next you're getting a scholarship.

Those moments right there are whats sports are all about.

After the surprise, Dakich hilariously explained how he felt during the surprise.
