1. Do you have your resume ready for local high schools as a history teacher in case this football thing doesn't work out?
I've thought about that. I like working with kids, so even if the kids are on the older end, I think I'd enjoy a job as a teacher. I'd want to do my best to make the kids into proper historians, since a lot of curriculums focus on teaching basic facts (though those are still important, don't get me wrong) rather than how to analyze sources and so on.
2. If you had the chance to paralyze the opposing team's best receiver with a cheap hit, but only be penalized 15 yards, would you do it?
Do you mean paralyze as in like, stop them from walking ever again? Hell no. Anybody who answers yes to that question should be kicked out of the league. This is a game, man. Accidents happen, but I'm never going to try to hurt someone intentionally.
3. There are rumors that coach Harbaugh did inappropriate things to secure your commitment to Michigan. Any comments?
Coach Harbaugh never did anything particularly inappropriate, but he did once show up at my house wearing a shirt made entirely of expired cup noodles.
4. Is there any special meaning behind your number 32?
My brother stuck a thumbtack into my wrist the day we were supposed to pick our numbers in high school. It wasn't super serious or anything, but my mom was so worried it'd get infected that she took me to the ER and I missed out on picking. The next day, the only number available for DBs was 32, so I took it and I've rolled with it ever since.
5. What made you want to be a safety instead of a cornerback?
I played cornerback for a few games back in high school, but I just really enjoy the feeling of bringing someone down, which is something safeties get to do more often. In addition, safeties are the last line of defense for a team. I enjoy contributing in that fashion more than trailing one or two guys for an entire game.
