Have you been in touch with anyone from Missouri lately?

"Time to time when we see each other, when the time’s convenient. We do speak and run into each other. Coach (Craig Kuligowski), I’ve talked to him. My old D-line coach at Missouri. He’s now with Miami. When I go back home, I may go up there occasionally and conversate with everybody. We still keep in touch." [...]

You feeling any nerves heading into the game? Excitement?

"I’m ready. I’m ready. I’m not overly excited. I’m very fortunate. I’m blessed. I know that. I realize that, realizing that guys get to this point and don’t ever get to this point after this, after that first time. And guys don’t get the opportunity ever. I’m humble. I’m just ready to have my opportunity. I’m going to take it one day at a time until I get to that point."
