What attracted you to Georgia Southern when you were making a decision to transfer?
I could see the passion and the love for football in everybody that I talked to. I knew the coaching staff before this, and then in meeting the staff here now, I could feel their passion for the game and Georgia Southern. I was really attracted about the feeling of being at home and the love of the game.
What do you like to do when you're away from football?
I'm an information seeker. I like to obtain information in some form or fashion.
What's your pregame ritual?
I listen to some music and then go out and warm up. I get a couple of throws in and then talk to a couple of receivers and get their thoughts before we get it going.
What do you prefer - a book, a movie or a video game?
Movies. Two of my favorites are Titanic and Friday.
What's the last show you binge-watched?
Snowfall
If you weren't a football player, what sport would you go to college to play?
Baseball
After football is over, what is your current career aspirations?
I want to be a coach or a cattle farmer. A couple of years ago, I watched Yellowstone and that was a big inspiration for me. I grew up in the country and was always attracted to that sort of stuff.
What's something most people don't know about you?
Probably that I want to be a cattle farmer! At this point of my life, I've been so football oriented in college, so I need to expand my horizons.
Finally, what aspect of gameday in Paulson Stadium are you looking forward to experiencing on Aug. 31 against Boise State?
I'm ready to hear the fans roar. I know all of Georgia Southern will be excited to have Eagle football back on that Saturday to start the season. I've been around Georgia Southern and know the environment around a football gameday, so I'm excited to be a part of it.
Georgia Southern opens its 2024 season at home on Saturday, Aug. 31 against defending Mountain West champion Boise State as part of an exciting six-game home schedule at Allen E. Paulson Stadium. Ticket renewals are underway and information can be found at
