(EPISODE #1: A NEW FACE IN TOWN)
(Grand Canyon Athletic Director Keith Baker is on a stool in the middle of the court of GCU Arena awaiting the arrival of Coach Drake)
Keith Baker: At this moment, I would like to welcome the new head coach of Grand Canyon University men's basketball, Josh Drake!
Josh Drake: Hey Keith. How are you doing?
Keith Baker: I'm fine. Now, first question of the day: What is your on-court strategy for this team?
Josh Drake: My strategy? Full court press the entire game and a fast-paced offense, even more fast-paced than Paul Westhead's Loyola Marymount teams from the 90's and VMI today.
Keith Baker: Secondly, you have $47,000 in budget left from $78,000 in assistant coach costs. What types of guys are you aiming to recruit here considering this limitation?
Josh Drake: I'm looking for those pure athletes out there who can take the fast pace, who can take the physical play, who can take on the challenge of a highly-competitive schedule day in and day out, and can dish it out right back to their opponent.
Keith Baker: Now that we've gotten those two things out of the way, tell me about your personal life.
Josh Drake: Well, I was born in Shelby, North Carolina, and I later moved to Grover, I have a girlfriend named Kimberly. She's the type of girl that breaks the windows and sets the kitchen on fire (LOL), AND I WAS AN A+ Student at Kings Mountain High School.
Keith Baker: Wow, looks like I've hired the right guy for the job (LOL).
Josh Drake: Oh, and one more thing, I almost forgot: I'm into Bon Jovi and T. Powell.
Keith Baker: T. Powell (LOL)? Who the heck is T. Powell (LOL)?
Josh Drake: You don't know who T. Powell is? Here, let me show you!
(Drake gets up from the stool and stands over Baker with his face off-camera as he prepares to sing 'Clear Eyes Full Hearts')
I got my fans in the stands, my team on my back
My family in my heart, I put my city on the map
See I’m cool with my school but I know I can do better.
I checked the mail yesterday and not one college letter.
Not one college offer after all this hard work.
I’d be telling you a lie if I said it didn’t hurt.
So how do I stay focused in this game called life?
And do I have a fair chance when this world so schife?
See we all pay a price; I got some things on my mind.
But I need to regain my focus, cause its game time.
Give all, leave nothing.
In the end, I got to choose.
Clear Eyes, Full Heart
I can’t lose!
(x2)
Clear Eyes, Full Heart, Can’t Lose
Clear Eyes, Full Heart, Can’t Lose
Clear Eyes, Full Heart, Can’t Lose
Clear Eyes
Now look me in the eyes,
And put your hand in mine
Forever is about to happen,
Right here in this moment of time
So let’s draw a line,
Right here in the sand
And let it be said that on this very day,
Is the day that we took a stand
Cause it’s not just a game,
It’s more than a game
It’s more than the hurt,
It’s more than the pain
It’s more than the glory,
It’s more than the fame
This right here,
Is about legacy man.
So it’s bigger than me,
It’s bigger than us
We can lose sight,
In the mist of the fuss.
Let’s slow it down and take it in
Enjoy this moment, what’s the rush
They want it bad, but we want it more.
This is what we been waiting for.
With tears in our eyes, we let our hearts roar
Unleash war when we walk out this door
We won’t be delayed
We won’t be denied
In the end, we won’t be refused
With Clear Eyes, a Full Heart
There’s no way that we can lose!
(x2)
Clear Eyes, Full Heart, Can’t Lose
Clear Eyes, Full Heart, Can’t Lose
Clear Eyes, Full Heart, Can’t Lose
Clear Eyes
(Drake walks off the set in a blaze of glory (no pun intended) as Baker is left all alone in wonder at the webcast set.)
