IN HIS OWN WORDS
"I realized I wanted to go to TCU a long time ago. The biggest reason I wanted to commit (now) is because of how close I am with everybody; we’re already a family and I know they have my back."
"This was definitely the toughest decision of my life. What separated them from everyone is that they're close to home, so it’s not hard for my family to make games. Playing in the Big 12, they're constantly putting guys in the NFL and I know I can get a great education there."
"I would definitely say Coach (Garrett) Altman (played a big role). They just constantly checked up on me and made sure I was good. Most of our conversations aren’t even about football; it’s about other important things in life."
"What stood out to me most is just how much they can help me during college and after football. They have many things to set me up for greatness. They think I can be a great tackle for them. I know I can go in and compete early, which I can’t wait to do. The biggest selling point is them putting a whole bunch of guys in the league, especially at the O-line position. They have like 11 current offensive linemen in the league and those guys are actually playing."
