Ten years ago this week, then-Florida QB Tim Tebow delivered an all-time speech to the media, known now as the “Promise” speech.
It came after a loss to an unranked Ole Miss team at home during the 2008 season, and Tebow promised that the team would turn things around.
On Saturday morning, ESPN’s College GameDay ran an incredible feature on the speech, and you can watch it below:

The speech was immortalized on a plaque that now hangs outside the stadium.
The Gators went on to win the national championship that year, and teammates say that speech was what drove them to turn things around.
