Q: When do you plan to get to Manhattan?

A: I plan on getting up to Manhattan on June 8.

Q: What is your height and weight?

A: I am 6-foot-5 and 245 pounds.

Q: Who are the fellow recruits/commits you speak with the most?

A: I mainly talk with my roommates Trevor Stange, Cooper Beebe and Brendan Mott.

Q: What have you been working on since your season ended?

A: Since the season ended, I've been working on my speed and quickness. I've gained some weight as well, but kept my quickness.

Q: What is the No. 1 thing about K-State that won you over?

A: The number one thing that won me over was the atmosphere of a game day in Manhattan. The fans are the best and I loved every moment while I was up there.

Q: What are your goals for your first season at Kansas State?

A: My goal for my first season is to prove to the coaches and my teammates that I'm trustworthy and dependable. I need to come out this summer and be one of the hardest workers. Hopefully if I achieve those things, it'll result in some snaps on Saturdays.

Q: What is something that people would think is unique about you?

A: I was on the B-Team my freshman year and played JV my entire sophomore season. I didn't touch the varsity field until the fifth game of my junior year. After that, I started every game and became a unanimous first-team all-district wide receiver.

Q: What school finished second in your recruitment?

A: Oklahoma was my second school.

Q: Which current assistant coach are you closest with?

A: Right now, I'm probably closest with Taylor Braet.

Q: What advice would you give to younger recruits now that you have gone through it?

A: Some advice I'd give to the younger kids is to go out and do as many camps as possible. That's how I got my Kansas State offer. I went to Manhattan and earned it. Camps put you on a platform in front of dozens of coaches and you get to show off your talents.
