They coach hard and tough. You've got to be on time. You've got to have skin like a duck's back. It's a little harsher than college football. But I've come this far. There's no reason to stop.

That's something I'm never going to forget.

When I first got here, I took something like seven tests.

Football's a contact sport, and you're always going to get hit. But if I see a guy coming on and trying to hit me in my left shoulder, I'll try to hit him with my right. Other than that, I'm just going to play football.

I know it's going to be a stressful (time).

You just have to get a feel for it. If he (kicks) a long ball, you're all right. But you got to make the decision fast and try not to make a bad one.

I can still feel it. People are still asking us about that game. That showed we could play in the SEC.

It's been rough, man. The only thing I can do is try to stay positive and work hard. I know I really didn't have a successful season here, but I had a lot of fun in the time that I've been here. (I'm) just going to continue to work hard and try to finish out the season strong.

I really need to work on my blocking skills. Other than that, I feel pretty good. I think I see things well and have good hands to catch the ball. I just want to stay focused on what I'm doing here.
