I would change the cutting rule. The offensive lineman can cut the defensive players and you have to be careful or you are going to have a knee injury.
Winning the MAC Championship last year. It was great that we had all of our fans show up and it felt like a home game in Detroit.
My favorite football movie is "The Program." It was fun to watch and I liked how physical the linebackers were.
It's been a big benefit for me being an outside linebacker. We get to move around a lot more and we have more freedom to make plays.
I played running back and linebacker growing up. When I was a running back I would make one cut and try to run people over. The coaches saw how I like to hit people so they moved me to linebacker. My dad actually helps me on defense by telling me what running backs are looking for and what moves they will make.
