I'm not an idiot; I can make adjustments to my life. But I like having a schedule.

We have a culture at NDSU that's about the team first.

I feel like I've earned respect with how I go about my business, how I carry myself.

I do have a little chip on my shoulder. I want to make a name for this state. I want to represent this state well so that's kinda the chip on my shoulder in that regard.

I'm a very motivated person. I don't need extra motivation.

A lot of guys have tons of talent, but it boils down to the mental side of things. Preparing and knowing your offense and studying the defense. Being able to read and react quickly. The mental side is often overlooked.

I just have to have trust in my guys to make plays. I play at a confident, fast pace, and when I like something, I take it. I rip it.

Coach Pederson, for me, the communication we have is clear, and it's an open line. He really respects my opinion on plays. If I'm feeling something... he instills a lot of confidence in me. That is huge.

At the end of the day, you just want to go to a team that believes in you... and hopefully wants to build a franchise around you.

I like to push the ball down the field when it's there. There's also times you just take the underneath one.

Playing football in Fargo has a total big-time feel. Everyone says it's FCS and it's a smaller school, but in Fargo, North Dakota, and in the state of North Dakota, NDSU football is the real deal.

If you throw the ball 60 times, you are going to make miss some of them. That kind of happens.
