1. In the media guide it says your favorite childhood toys were legos and now you're majoring in mechanical engineering. Have you always been interested in building things?
I've always liked building stuff ever since I was little. I built a really big house once of out legos. I figured if was going to come to college, I might as well further my knowledge on something I like.
2. Do you know what type of company and what type of work you'd like to do when your football career is over?
I'd like to work with a company like General Motors or Ford where I would be building parts for cars and other vehicles.
3. Your dad is a doctor and mother is a teacher. How much influence did they have on you in your attitude toward education?
A lot. Ever since I was little they have taught me the importance of getting an education. They told me that after football I would still have my education to fall back on. They've always stressed the importance of education.
4. How did you get the nickname "Night Train"?
That was given to me in high school and to be quite honest I don't know where people got it from.
5. Your brother, Alex, plays at Michigan. Do you ever wish you could line up against each other?
It would be nice. I would love to play Michigan. We've argued with each other last couple of years over who was better. I told him last year that we would have given them a game.
