When did you start playing football and when did you begin to like playing football?
I started when I was nine and I like it from the start.
What is your greatest strength and your greatest weakness?
I can extend plays with my feet outside the pocket would be my greatest strength. Although staying in the pocket and stepping up in the pocket would be an area that I need to work on.
Who is your biggest motivator?
My friend that goes Northwestern, he graduated from my school when I was a freshman. He is one of the hardest working people I know and he helps to motivate me a lot.
What has playing quarterback taught you about yourself?
That I can lead a group of people to the same common goal and that I can get everybody to believe in the same thing.
How do you prepare physically and mentally for a game?
Watching a ton of film and listening to music to get focused.
What do your coaches say about you?
That I am a born leader, although some coaches say that I need to be more vocal, they say that I lead by example more than vocally.
Why should colleges recruit you?
Because I have a lot of work ethic, I will do anything, and I will give you everything I got no matter what.
How have you improved since your freshman year of highschool?
My arm got a lot stronger, I got a lot stronger, I got really faster, and my new coaches helped me out a lot.
What did you think about the Louisiana Gridiron Football bowl game you played in recently?
It was a really great experience; they had a lot of great coaches and a lot of great players. I’m glad we got to play in front of a lot of new people, it was all in all a great atmosphere, and it was a fun game that was played. I’m really glad I did it.
