00:15 And then my boy Kaden, Kaden Green, he go there.
00:19 That was just a plus for it.
00:21 It made me look at it more than what I really did look at it.
00:24 It was way bigger.
00:26 And then it just felt like home, really.
00:31 It's different from any other school I've been to.
00:33 >> Why was it important to you to be the first lineman in that class?
00:40 >> I gotta start it off, we're gonna make it big.

00:54 We get real close.
00:56 I could tell from the first time I made him, it was something different.

01:02 How prepared are you for him?
01:03 Are you still gonna maybe try and get a little ball going?
01:07 >> I wanna try to, but that's gonna be hard.

01:29 >> Be disruptive, but I wanna make some plays for myself.

01:58 I'm starting to see the D-line get after it.
02:00 >> So Kevin Smeary's been really active with wide receiver recruiting,
02:04 tight end recruiting, things like that.
02:05 Do you see yourself taking a similar role with the defense and
02:08 starting to stack up that side of the class?
02:09 >> Yeah, Kevin, that's cool.
02:12 I see how he does it, tell me through it.
02:16 Got a better understanding of how to work it, how to do it stuff.

02:40 That's something different, I've never seen nobody with something like that.
02:44 They travel all across the world.
