That is, until the former UNC linebacker suited up for his first practice with Carl Torbush. “He was just so all over me about doing things right,” Steinbacher said. “I was almost brought to tears in practice because his standard was that high.” Yet, when Steinbacher needed someone to talk to, he sought out Torbush.
