On His Final Two:
“Just them recruiting me hard since the beginning of my sophomore year. Them and Texas A&M recruiting me hard. I’ve been there (A&M) almost 10 times. Oregon I just like the connection we have, coach Hamp, coach Wadood, coach Lanning. Texas A&M, coach Elko, defensive guy.”
On Oregon’s Spring Game:
“Just a lot of young guys out there. Dakorien Moore, Na’eem Offord, just all the young guys showing, putting them out there on TV and stuff like that. That really showed a lot to me.”
