He stays on me about my hand position but he hasn't gotten on me about one-handed catches yet.

I was helping to resolve the problems of everyday Minnesotans. I feel it (politics) is something I could do. Maybe he (Dayton) can help me on my campaign when I run for the Senate in Minnesota.

He used to harp on me every day on how we had fat tight ends.

I think it's from high school when I played wide receiver and those thoughts haven't left my mind. I feel elusive. At SC I used to call myself a fat Reggie Bush. It was a joke Reggie and I had. I told him that if I was 200 pounds I might be doing the same things he's been doing.

We respect everyone week in and week out and we know Arizona State is another fierce competitor in the Pac-10 and they have things to prove. We're just doing our best to be prepared for them.

As soon as he went down I prayed for him and hoped for all of the best for him. I was watching it. It's always kind of sickening to see that happen but I know that Carson is a strong guy. He went through five years at SC with some ups and downs but he came out on top.

You could put one of the linemen back there.

I've been through that ACL deal and I think he can come out stronger as a player just by driving himself through rehab. He's going to be a friend of the rehab room. The mental aspect of it will be the biggest thing but I know that Carson is a strong-minded guy and he believes in himself so I don't think it will be a problem for him.
