4. Athletic Status (True Freshman or Redshirt): True Freshman

5. If not Red Shirted, have you had a chance to play in a game yet? Yes, I am the starter.

6. Biggest memory/moment so far your freshman year? I got the opportunity to kick a game winner for my team on my first field of my career.

7. The 2 biggest differences between high school and college football:  It's a lot faster. You have to be the ball off a lot faster too.

8. What did you work on most prior to the start of your college year?  I worked a lot harder on kickoffs the most before I got to college.

9. Best advice you received to prepare you for collegiate football:  There are going to be bad days playing football. But you have to fight through it and keep working hard.
