List these three in order of importance and why: Film Study, Strength and Conditioning and Practice?

What do you worry about, and why?

Give me an example of when you failed at something. How did you react and how did you overcome failure?
•My sophomore year in college I actually got switched to fullback. At first I was angry and thought I wasn’t good enough to play running-back. I actually took pride in been a fullback as the season progressed. In the off season I worked my butt off so that coach could see how effective I can be at running back. The next two years showed that hard work paid off.

• There are three of them and they were all on my college linebacker core. Jasper Chavez, Warren Singleterry, and Charles Barnes III. These men forced the best out of me. Tough me how to run tough in the trenches. They are so fats too the ball. It was always full speed when going against a group lie this.
What would your career be if you couldn’t play football?
• I want to be apart of the San Diego police force. I hope to change the world view on police today. Not all cop are the cops we tend to see on social media.

What is your most embarrassing moment?
The most embarrassing moment I have had was at a Christmas party and it was random song karaoke. I got chose to sing Party In the USA by Miley Cyrus. It wasn’t embarrassing cause I didn’t do good. It was embarrassing cause I knew every word too the song !
What was the most memorable play of your collegiate career?
• It was the national quarter final game and we just scored to go up 41 to 40. Coach calls for a two point play where the QB hands it too me and I fake run too the out side and throw it too out TE. We converted to go up 43 to 40. A play I’ll never forget.
What song best describes your work ethic?
• Last Breath by Future

If you could bring one person back from the dead for one day, who would it be and why?
