carry colorado people prove running shocked support sure
I'm sure there's probably a lot of people in Colorado who are shocked by my performance. I didn't have a lot of support out there as a running back and I just wanted to prove that I'm a running back and that I can carry 30 or 40 times a game.
body definitely hard obviously people run work
It is tough. You're up 'til 11, you're up at 6, and that's definitely hard on your body. But I wanted to work out. Obviously I wanted to run faster, but people know I can run fast. I have no regrets.
absolutely asked degree heard people
Absolutely not. It's not even a question. I've heard it (rumored) and people have asked me about it. But I'm here to get my degree - I'm going to be here for two years.
became corner great job line offensive productive running safety
It wasn't just me. The offensive line did a great job today. Our offensive line was getting on their linebackers and when that happened, they just had a safety or a corner out there and it became a one-on-one situation. That's why we were so productive running the ball.
ahead backs choice competition everybody good guy looking respect running understand work
It's always good just for competition, but there's a lot of good running backs that are here and are going to work out, and I know everybody is looking at the guy ahead of him to see what he does and that's going to be no different for me. I understand that he's not working out, but that's his choice and I respect that.
backs felt finished good higher last next obviously running until value
It was pretty back-and-forth. Up until probably the last minute. I just felt like, I don't know if my value could be any higher than this year, the way I finished off, than it could next year. Obviously there are a lot of good running backs in this class, but I feel like I'm just as good as any of them.
perform third worried
I'm not really worried about it, but at the same time, I do have to perform better because there is no third chance. So there will be a little more pressure, but I think I'll be fine.
enjoy teammates win worry
I'm not going to worry about that right now. I just enjoy this win with my teammates and I'll worry about that tomorrow.
knows run
Everyone knows I'm not slow. I don't run times that slow.
against anybody ball gave knew move nobody surprised
I don't think it surprised anybody on our team. Nobody gave us a chance. But we knew they were a little undersized and we could move the ball against them.
guys michigan
I'm still kind of new to the program. I don't really know too much about the rivalry. I know a lot of guys really don't like Michigan at all.
chance expected fortunate obviously run
Obviously I had to do better than I did at the combine. I think I did what I expected all along. I'm just fortunate I had another chance to run it here.
good match understand
It'd be good to match up with him. But I understand it, and that's how it is.
against anyone carolina country definitely fast florida kansas north overall played state teams
I know Florida State is probably as fast as anyone in the country. I've played against some of the better teams with a lot of overall speed, like Oklahoma, Kansas State and USC. And I definitely think North Carolina will be similar.
