00:00 So one day, just happy to be here.
00:02 >> What in this recruiting process and transfer kind of separated Virginia and
00:07 made them a good fit for you?
00:09 >> First coach Elliot and staff came here and met them.
00:12 I feel like they were good guys off the field as well as good coaches on the field.
00:16 And then secondly, just academics.
00:18 I'm getting my master's done in a year, so
00:20 just have a backup plan once football's once over, so.
00:24 >> How quickly did it take them to reach out to you once you were in the portal?
00:28 >> I think I went to portal on Tuesday and they called me on Wednesday.
00:32 So it was quick.
00:34 >> So it was a quick process.
00:35 >> Coach Elliot just complimented just how hard you practice.
00:41 Has that always been kind of part of your,
00:43 something you've been known for, going hard in practice?
00:48 >> I mean, I've been a part of a lot of hard, high effort teams.
00:53 So competition, you gotta play hard if you wanna play.
00:55 So that's kind of been some of this, even at Miami, Ohio, we all played hard.
01:00 So to get on the field, you gotta play extra hard, so.
01:04 >> What's, I guess, been the goal as far as NFL aspirations and
01:08 how can this staff help you in terms of that goal?
01:12 >> Yeah, definitely.
01:12 I'm trying to play football as long as I can.
01:15 So just trying to go out there this year, have a great year,
01:18 have my best year yet, and see what kind of doors that opens up for me.
