Favorite food?
My favorite food would be chicken and dumplings!! Hands down!! Always puts me in a good mood when I get home and there's a big bowl of "dumplings" on the table!!!
Any funny fact you want to say about yourself?
I can ride a unicycle!! The funny thing is that I've heard I look like Donkey Kong riding a little unicycle!! How many people can say they can ride a unicycle!! Really?!
Can you tell us your current height, weight and 40 time?

What is your greatest football moment?
Way too many incredible football moments, but one that particularly stands out was the first play of the game against Santa Ana when I sacked the quarterback in the endzone for a safety!
What teams recruited you the most out of HS and what schools extended scholarship offers?
No one recruited me out of high school because of injuries my senior season...As for recruiting out of Junior College, I was called and recruited by University of Colorado, University of Michigan, Arizona, San Diego State University but was never offered because I was not "tall enough" for Defensive End standards?!
What Bengal coach did the primary recruiting for you?
Junior Falevai....deeply cared about my well-being!!
Why did you commit to Idaho State?
I committed to Idaho State because everyone out there actually cared for my success!! I got along with all the coaches and players and could definitely see myself stepping in and contributing to the success of the program. Pocatello--was also a large factor, it was a close knit town and I love the fact that is has four true seasons.
What position do you see yourself playing for the Bengals?
Defensive End. Maybe a little 3 technique.
What do you need to work on the most to play at the college-level?
I need work on my hands and feet to play against the big boys at ASU and Oklahoma. For if it isn't a challenge, then it won't be any fun!!
What is the greatest attribute that you bring to Bengal football?
Leadership. That is why they brought me out of junior college, to be a leader!!
Do you have anything that you would like to say to fans of ISU?
To the fans of Idaho State Football. I would first like to say that this program is coming full circle!! I cannot promise anything for anyone except myself, in saying that I will give ISU everything humanly possible that I can give! Keep supporting the program!! Thank You for your interest.
