It's kind of an honor to sign autographs. You get the privilege of signing your autograph a few times for some kids. It's fun, and you enjoy it while it lasts.

I love playing at Texas A&M. It's a pretty amazing atmosphere with the tradition they have, and the stadium gets going.

My grandpa is my hero. He raised 12 children on a pretty low budget. He instilled some values in them that they've passed on down to us. To do that is really respectable, and I look up to that.

(Tight end) Joe Jon Finley is my closest teammate. We've been together since our freshman year and still live together. We've gotten to know each other through the years, and we're always there for each other.

Probably the first thing I noticed when I got to Norman was the support we have of the community. Everywhere you go there's an "OU.”
