1. Do you prefer to go for the risky throws with larger payouts or do you prefer the small, easy throws that aren't as flashy?
If we're down in the score, you'll definitely see me going with riskier throws that could potentially have a good payout for the guys. However, a tie, a lead or a pretty close game, I'll definitely be playing it safe and not lob the ball whenever.
If I did, I'm pretty sure my coach from ISU would drive all the way out just to smack me on the back of the head, hahahaha.

It depends on what my coach would want me to do. If he wants me to take my time and get those perfect passes out, then yeah, I'll be pretty reliant on a solid offensive line. However, if the game plan is for me to play my usual game of finding those lanes and getting the ball accurately down through them, then I won't be as reliant on the offensive line.
Again, it depends on what the game plan is.

I don't keep track. I love the game but, I usually don't hold onto personal accolades unless if they're pretty important in my career. You'll have to ask some of the guys back at ISU.

I'll be focusing more on speed than bulk right now. Since I'm much smaller than the other QBs and players in the NSFL, I know I can't beat them in size, but I can beat them in agility and speed. So you're going to see me doing a lot of sprints, working out my legs and cardio up until the draft.

Thanks, and good luck in the draft!
Idaho really loves their potatoes, so I guess it'd have to be the loaded potato skins, hahaha.

With my play with Team 1 in the first All American Bowl, I'm seeing myself as one of the Top 5 QBs. I'm no analyst, but I think I'll probably be the fourth or fifth QB taken in the draft, mainly because of concerns about my size.

I've been playing quarterback since I started football. I'm not open to switching positions.

Yeah, if it gets our team wins, I'm willing to play second fiddle or splitting games with another QB. I'm a team player, and if the coach believes we can see more success with us splitting games, then I'll happily do it without complaints. I want whatever team I'm drafted to, to have the best amount of success, and if I have to play back-up or split games with someone else, then I'll do it.

Not really. I haven't really been speaking to any of the other draftees, mainly because I've been focusing on training and building myself up for the draft.

Thunder Bay, Ontario. Just because I want to go back home, hahahaha.
