asking coming crazy immediate people
It's been crazy and hectic. A lot of people calling, coming up and asking for tickets. I don't have any more. We only get four, and they're going to my immediate family.
chance excited giving opportunity taking
I'm very excited that somebody's taking a chance on me and giving me the opportunity to go out there and show what I can do.
agent came felt few giants hard matter offensive position round seventh spoke teams tight
During the seventh round (of the draft), I spoke to my agent and he told me a few teams were interested. The Giants were the only ones that came at me hard and I felt comfortable going with them. They told me I'd be a tight end or an offensive tackle. It doesn't matter to me (which position I play) as long as I get on the field.
bring glad gotten tony
Tony did what had to be done. And we were glad to have gotten to the place where we could bring him back.
finding great job keeping somebody
We just do a great job finding somebody to put a body on, keeping them from getting on the glass.
against came george gym older played player proving
I used to play against George Evans at the gym at Aberdeen Proving Ground. He was the same player then that he was when he came to college. He had the big eyes. I always played against the older guys.
basically work
I've basically just been working hard. I've been getting up in the morning, going to class, or getting up in the morning, going to work out. When I'm done with class, I'm going to the gym. When I'm done with the gym, I'm going to class.
amazing changed college face history
This is history we're living. We changed the face of college basketball. It was an amazing run, but unfortunately it had to come to an end.
I don't know what I'm going to do.
guard hard inside matter scores start together work
We start inside first and then work our way out. If everybody's hitting, it's going to be hard to guard us. We play together as a team, nobody's selfish. It doesn't matter who scores as long as we come out winning. It's really hard to guard us when we're on all cylinders.
against experience great
It's going to be a great experience going up against another great big man.
came defense glass pressure supposed top
They didn't do anything different, we just weren't on the top of our game. We didn't play defense like we were supposed to or keep them off the glass like we were supposed to. We just didn't come out with our 'A game' today. I don't think it was the pressure or the atmosphere, we just came out flat.
children front lifetime playing
It's a lifetime experience, going out and playing in front of 60,000 people. Something you can keep with you for a lifetime. Something you can tell your children and grandchildren.
anticipate players smart
I just try to be very smart about the game, try to anticipate what other players are going to do before they make their moves.
