I think he's the best running back right now and I just wanted to get a chance to work out with him, see what it takes to be that guy and get to the level he's at. Whatever you think is the most you can work out, double that.
He's a great coach, a guy that I had a chance to play for and know very well. So I would obviously love the opportunity to get a chance to play for Coach Chow again.
He's a game breaker just like I am. And he has the ability to do the same thing. You have to respect a guy like him.
I always idolized guys like Deion Sanders, Barry Sanders, Steve Young and the entire 49ers team, really. I was a huge 49ers fan growing up.
I play on pure instincts. I remember being surrounded by three guys getting ready to tackle me, and I saw one of my teammates off to the right by himself, and I tried to pitch the ball to him. That's the type of player I am. I play fearless and I'm willing to score at all costs. I feel like if I would have made the pitch and we'd scored, it would have been the greatest play in college history.
I like rugby - I watch it from time to time. It's basically football without pads but probably a little bit more dangerous than football. You've got to be a lot tougher in that sport - but I definitely like watching rugby and watching those guys knock each other around. It looks like a fun sport.
I?m just a normal guy in general. I know a lot of people might see me as a celebrity, but I?m just a normal guy who likes to do normal things. Hang out with his friends ... go shopping ... play video games.
This shows this is a great program. Coach Carroll has brought this program back up to where it used to be. USC was down for a while, but Coach brought us back and today speaks for itself. We're definitely on our way to qualifying as a dynasty.
When you join the NFL, you start from scratch. As long as I've been playing - which has been since I was eight years old - the game becomes harder at every level. Little league, high school, college - they're different stages you have to go through, and professional sport is completely different again.
We just know if we play to the end, we'll find a way to win. We always do.
This year, I haven't had many opportunities. They've sky punted me. They've pinned me on the sidelines. Most of the time, they kick it high and short.
We've been looking for a house for two to three months. I was looking for a house for my parents, something to take care of them. That's the fun thing about this process. You get to buy your parents nice things. It just happened that we found one.
What does he bring? Everything. He brings energy. We feed off his energy.
We had the momentum going, and you just get caught up sometimes trying to make a big play. Sometimes, you've got to know when to harness that and just get the first down.
