Q: What do you want to accomplish going into your senior year?
A: “I just want to leave a mark just like the guys before me did. When you walk into the FOC you see leaders that left it all out on the field and I want to do just the same. I want to show others that is an opportunity here and that it is a perfect place to achieve your goals.”
Q: Since this is the first FBS season for Ga. Southern, what is the most exciting thing about this year?
A: “Everyday is exciting since it’s something new. This is new to all of us. Every day is a process, we’re just taking it day by day. . .getting bigger, faster and stronger and getting mentally prepared for the next game.”
Q:What game are you looking forward to most on the schedule?
A: “Oh, first game, Raleigh, N.C. I have family there, and it’s going to be amazing. The crowd is going to be amazing, just to have it there especially since my mother is from there and everyone has been talking about it.”
Q: What is your favorite addition in the revamped Paulson Stadium?
A: “I love the FOC, I love the Jumbo-Tron, that’s all nice, but the main thing is our fans and supporters, and it feels great to have that second deck and have more people come in and support us because we’re family here. We’re a community, and a brotherhood.”
