Quotes

On what it means to be an IU football player:

Its about having the pride and the Hoosier fans. I came in with Coach Hep and he just brought a different atmosphere to Indiana football. That was very memorable to me. When we got the Bucket back in 2007, to get that for him, meant a lot for me.

On his favorite individual memory:

The Bucket game in 2007. We became bowl-eligible and that was one of Coach Hep's dreams.

On future plans:

If I don't continue playing football, then hopefully I'll find a job as a firefighter. I have always wanted to do that since I was a little kid.
