Historical Figure You’d Most Like To Meet And Why:
Martin Luther King, Jr., because I’d want to talk about his dream and that no matter how hard people try to keep you from your dream, you must continue to work hard at it.

Advice You’d Give To Young People:
Work hard. Hard work is the key to success. You can do whatever you put your mind to. Always strive to be the best at what you do.

What You Like Most About Being A Gamecock:
I love everything about being a Gamecock, but I would have to say our fans are the best thing. They are the most loyal in the country!

How Will The New South End Zone Facility Make A Difference In This Program?
The new South End Zone facility will make a huge difference in our program. When I first went in there, I felt like I transferred to a better University of South Carolina. It will help with our strength and conditioning program and with recruiting.

First Impression Of Steve Spurrier:
I like Coach Spurrier a lot. He’s a winner. He has brought that winning attitude to our team, and that’s what we needed. He also put together a great coaching staff and they are going to put us in the best position to be winners.

How Have You Matured Since Coming To College?
I have matured a lot since coming to USC. Everything is so important to me now. As a freshman, I just wanted to come in and play. As a senior, I want to be the best player I can be in all aspects of the game. I want to do whatever it takes for my team to be the best it can be.

Your Message To Carolina Fans:
I want to first thank all the fans who have been loyal and true to USC for all these years. I then want you to get ready to see the new and improved Gamecocks this year!
