So much of the game is, in the phrase of Roy Williams, "Want-to." (Best said with a bit of a southern drawl).
If you want it more than the other guy, you're that much harder to beat.
Crum walked on at Southern Utah in 2005-06 and played in 11 games. He sat out last season, taking his redshirt and graduating, and planned to return to the team last fall as a graduate student. But when new coach Roger Reid was hired, he told Crum his chances of making the team were slim.
If Reid expected that to be enough to discourage Crum, he was mistaken.
"It's a marvel and a great story about a young man that has said I can do it instead of 'I can't do it,'" said Reid, who started Crum in the last six games of the regular season. "He's earned it. He could have quit many, many times."
