Your first carry goes for 13 yards, that was a pretty strong run but the touchdown also. Which run did you like better?
All of them, they were all good. I love them all.
How was it family wise? How special was it for them to see you score a touchdown.
Oh, I love it, I love it. I can't wait to get out of here. Yeah, we got like, 30 to 40 people waiting on me outside. I have a great family.
Did you feel a lot of Dominic Puni pushing you back there on your touchdown?
Oh, I feel like 100 percent because I was short until he came and pushed me.
As a hard-nosed runner, you probably appreciate big hits. What do you make of Malik Mustapha's shot on fourth down?
Oh, yeah. I love him. I just love him out there. Today, actually Juice (Kyle Juszczyk) came up to me and I was like yeah, I like him. I was just like, where did he come from? You know, he's always been standing out. But just today I was like 'oh where you come from?' And he said Wake Forrest and I was just like, yeah, he's going to be something for sure.
There were a few guys on this roster that have some Tennessee ties – Ke'Shawn Vaughn, Jauan Jennings, have you talked to those guys about maybe how special it is to be back in the Nashville area?
We really hadn't talked. I didn't really want to talk to him because he's still learning plays and things like that. So, I wasn't really willing to talk about things like that. But, you know, we have had that conversation about coming back home and things like that.
You feel like there's a lot to cleanup from your game tonight?
Yeah, definitely. I guess the media can say I had a good day. To me, I mean, I didn't really have a good day to me. I mean, I know I can run. I'm trying to complete, make my game complete.
And how much of an emphasis is on catching the ball and running fast?
It's definitely a big emphasis for me.
Being from Gallatin, what does that kind of mean to you? I think there were a couple Gallatin players on the sideline at halftime, seemed like green and gold a little bit. What does it mean to be a running back from Gallatin High School?
Well, I didn't see nobody out there with green and gold. I don't know if I missed it, but you know green and gold that's what I believe. Always rep.
