decided iowa liked offer saw sent tape trying
I sent a lot of tape out, trying to get someone to bite. Basically, Iowa saw the film, liked what they saw and decided to offer me.
bowl complain four great january run wins
It's been such a great run - 38 wins in four years and four January bowl games. We don't have a lot to complain about.
albert talented
I think Albert Young could be an every-down back because he's so talented in all areas.
couple seems
He seems really tough. A couple of times, I teed off on him, but he got right back up and made a big play.
college deal easy hurts last
It hurts a lot. The last play of my college career, to end like that, it's not going to be easy to deal with.
athletics whatever
They recruited me as an athlete. Whatever that means.
coming knows learn player situation
He knows what is right for the situation of a player coming in. He has a feel for it. I don't think you can really learn that. It's kind of innate.
beating florida typical
That was typical of what the refs were doing today. But it's not about that. It's about Florida beating us. They outplayed us today.
listening people sitting
I've been sitting here listening to the people say, 'Gator Bait' all day.
classy difference finished
You could feel the difference from two years ago, how they finished a play. (That) was a classy bunch. I have to give them all the credit.
gone improve stock
Everything has gone well for me this week. I think I've done enough to improve my stock this week.
huge iowa maturity
It would be huge for this team's confidence. We didn't show a lot of maturity at Iowa State, and this is another challenge.
beat florida typical
I don't know if I was offside or not. It was just typical of what the referees did today. But give Florida credit. They beat us.
ended great proud team
We were part of the team that started it and to be part of the team that ended it wouldn't be something to be proud of. I don't know what makes it such a great advantage. I just know that as a player, you feel so much more comfortable at home.
