He's a big, athletic player. He has great hands, ... He's a smart player, so he knows how to read defenses and find soft spots. He's the type of player that's able to make plays whenever we need them. |
He's a great teacher. He's taught me so many things about how to run an offense and be a leader, ... A lot of things he learned in the NFL, he's brought down to teach me. |

He's in Hollywood, that's where all the big entertainment is, so obviously that's going to be part of his college experience and everything he goes through. Obviously being in South Bend, it's not a hot spot for celebrities, so a lot of the focus when it comes to me is more or less football. |
He's so brutally honest at times that it can catch you off guard. The best thing about his honesty is that it's fair. He doesn't play favorites. He's even more intense now than he was in the spring, and I'm sure that he will become even more so when we start playing the season. |
I definitely feel comfortable with talking about that with Coach and giving him what I'm seeing out there, ... Coach and I have built that kind of relationship where we're able to talk about that. I can tell him how I feel about certain things. |
I didn't know if it meant it was going to be a good day or a bad day. |
I didn't notice any (difference) in particular. He's a great player with a great career ahead of him. He showed up today and had a great game. |
I don't think he's worn all of them at the same time. |
I still am. I root for Ohio State in certain circumstances. |
I think he's trying to mold me the same kind of way. Initially, he used to talk about Tom Brady a lot. He doesn't necessarily bring him up as much now. I'm nowhere close to the magnitude of where (Brady) is right now. |
I think I'd be lying if I said it wasn't frustrating, ... There were times in certain situations where I realized that someone was going to have to make a play outside of themselves in order to make this work. |
I think it was our best performance of the season. |
I think that sent a message to start the game like that, |
I think the biggest thing is you've got to make sure everyone is relaxed and focused, because communicating back and forth between the o-line, the wide receivers, everyone on the field is going to be the biggest key. Obviously, there's a lot that can happen when the noise level goes up. Guys start losing their focus and let other things become a focus, so that's going to be the biggest factor - making sure guys are relaxed and focused. |
