00:00 All right, how's it been so far since you got on campus?
00:03 >> It's been great, it's a blessing to be here.
00:05 >> Has it been everything you expected?
00:06 >> Yes, sir.
00:07 >> Now, it sounds like you guys have been put to the test a little bit through
00:10 the ringer, has it been pretty tough?
00:11 >> Yes, sir, it has, we've been going in every day,
00:15 every day throughout the week, just been in that work.
00:17 >> There is concern over the offensive line,
00:19 that's one of the biggest positions with turnover.
00:22 Do you hear those concerns, and
00:23 what do you think when people say they don't know what to expect?
00:25 >> Really, I hear them, but as a group, as being a player in our group,
00:29 we know what we have to do.
00:30 We're coming in every day working, keeping our minds straight,
00:33 keeping our head on the swivel, and just coming in grinding every day.
00:35 And we know what our destination is this season.
00:38 >> So O-line's gonna be just fine?
00:40 >> Yes, sir.
00:41 >> What is it about Coach Biedenbough?
00:42 I mean, he just brings out NFL offensive linemen, does such a great job.
00:46 Now that you've worked with him some, what is it about him that makes him so
00:49 impressive?
00:49 >> He's really just passionate about the game.
00:52 He really loves the game, and just being another player to come in early and
00:56 just be able to be coached by him is a blessing, like I said.
00:59 It's just a great opportunity for me to come in and to be coached by him.
01:03 >> Did the move to the SEC play any role in your recruiting, and
01:06 are you excited for that challenge?
01:08 >> No, it wasn't a role in my recruiting, but it added a plus onto it.
01:13 Just really just how more of the team and
01:18 everybody was more welcoming, and it was like a family.
01:21 That was the reason why I committed.
01:23 But then going to the SEC, hearing about the SEC, that was a big plus.
01:26 And that added on to it, yes sir.
01:28 >> And is there a venue specifically that you're most excited to go play in this
01:32 coming year?
01:33 >> Yes sir, just going to Dominate and play with the boys, yes sir.
01:37 >> Thank you, really appreciate it.
01:38 >> You too.
