On why he chose Washington...Definitely the culture. Coming from Bishop Gorman, they already had all the gear and treats, but it was a family atmosphere here and I always wanted to be a Dawg.
On his position growing up...I was always a quarterback in peewees and little league. When I went to high school, I actually played defensive end, I got after DJ Uiongelele in our game against St. John Bosco that year. Eventually I transitioned to wide receiver and it went smooth. I always felt I could get it done from wherever I was playing, so it wasn't that hard.
On the top receivers all being out early in the season...It was hard because we all wanted to helpt he team, but we had to keep working and getting healthy.
On handling the adversity of things so far...We always talk about adversity and how to handle it. Whether it's the pandemic or the way things have gone this season, we've always worked hard to overcome adversity.
On his first TD catch last week against UCLA... I have always felt the pressure to make plays. I wanted that one back on the other side of the field where I misplayed it, but I was able to come back and say "hi mom", so that was cool. I went over and pointed at her.
On handling the 2-4 start...It's frustrating. UW has a history of success and we want to amplify that and we have the athletes to do that. It's not ideal, but we still have six games and we're going to keep working hard and building on things and hopefully we'll come out with some wins.
On the wide receiver room...We're all pretty tight. It's about lifting each other up and about "being one". You want your brothers to succeed and they want you to succeed. Coach Junior Adams has done a good job of building that culture.
On being a Dawg...I'm really happy here. I love it here. I love being a Dawg. It's a test we're going through right now with how the season has started, but we're drawing closer together and we're working as hard as we can to come out of it.
On wearing a net over his head during practice...We have glasses too, but we're always looking for new tricks to enhance our game and make things harder so that when we take them off, it's easier.
On what the team needs to do to be more consistent...We need to take advantage of our opportunities. We've left some plays out on the field. We need to execute.
On lifting Dylan Morris up...He knows he needs to play better and we need to do a better job to go up and make plays to help him. He's a good leader, he is working his ass off to get better and we know he can play better. We know we all can play better.
