That’s an invaluable lesson that Daley learned under challenging circumstances after his high school career ended. He had to go the junior college route before heading to the University of South Carolina, a two-year experience at Georgia Military College that still sticks with him to this day.
“There’s a saying out there: ‘If you can make it through JUCO, you can make it through anything,’” said Daley, who detailed how the military school instilled self-discipline in him. “During the school year we got up at like 5 a.m. and we had formation at 6:45. … We do our classes early because practice starts at 2:30, so right after you leave class you go straight to practice.
“You get out of practice and you have to run, sprint to dinner. Dinner closes at six so when you get out of practice you have to sprint. ... At 6:50, you have another military formation and then seven o’clock starts study hall. So you’re in study hall from 7:30-9:30. Then you have another military formation at 9:45.”
