He told his players from day one to expect everyone's best effort.
"We said, guys... you gotta bring it every single day throughout the week, Monday through Friday," Von Bargen said.
Von Bargen credited his seniors for maintaining intensity throughout the practice week.
"I put a lot pressure on those 20 guys to bring it every single day and bring the group up," he said. "We talk about, when you're a junior what you expect, and as a senior, got to have good production and bring guys with you. And these guys have done just that."
