00:00 >> What do you think of the Big House team?
00:02 They're one of the most storied teams in American college football history.
00:09 With the Big House, the biggest crowd comes to watch their games, and
00:13 you were part of that rivalry.
00:14 Tell me a little bit about it.
00:17 >> I mean, they do have a very talented team.
00:20 I mean, the crowd behind them, they have a good crowd behind them.
00:24 They have good players.
00:26 I mean, they have an all around good squad.
00:27 I mean, but it's not nothing we're not prepared for.
00:31 >> When you say Michigan State would play Michigan, and
00:35 then you played Oregon a couple of times, several times, and
00:39 Washington, who's got the crazier rivalry?
00:42 >> I would say the Washington versus Oregon is a much more,
00:49 I would say, competitive rivalry.
00:51 Even though playing at Michigan, Michigan State,
00:54 I didn't really know the hype behind it.
00:59 I didn't really feel as if the rivalry was as competitive as UW versus Oregon.
01:07 >> So you didn't really just hate Michigan.
01:09 You weren't there long enough to develop it.
01:11 >> Yeah, I wasn't there long enough to really develop a hatred towards them like
01:16 how everybody else was.
01:17 >> So you had a pretty good first season here in Washington.
01:20 They used you a lot, caught a lot of balls.
01:22 You've still played with three veteran guys that are probably all leaving,
01:25 from what I can tell.
01:27 And then that leaves you and Giles, and there's a guy coming in from-
01:32 >> Cal.
01:35 >> Chatsworth, yeah, Cal.
01:36 I know you can't look too far ahead.
01:39 You got a game Monday.
01:40 But still, good things are coming for you, better things.
01:43 Good things have already happened for you.
01:44 But I envision you maybe as a number one guy, maybe the next Roman Dunzey.
01:50 When I say something like that, what do you think your response to it?
01:54 >> I mean, man, I just, I got great leaders ahead of me and
01:58 I just learn from them each and every day.
02:00 And I just apply that to my game and I continue on the off season,
02:04 just continue to work as hard as I can.
02:06 And when the time is right, we'll see the word come to light.
