"My goal when I first get down there is to get my name out there and let everybody know that I'm here, that I'm not going anywhere for four years, and that every time I put my hand down, every time you put your hand down, it's going to be a fight. And I want to get a few sacks, but most of all I want to help the team, I want to help do whatever it takes for the team to win. All I want to do is win."
"I always say the sky is the limit. We're going to beat Florida. I don't care what anybody says, we're going to beat Florida. I don't care what kind of recruits they have, or who you get, or whatever, we're going to beat Florida, you can quote me on that one. We're going to win the SEC Championship. What people don't understand, is when I went to the Army All-American Bowl they were laughing when I said I was committed to South Carolina.
"What people don't understand is that South Carolina wasn't far from beating the National Champion and both teams in the SEC Championship. They just don't know what's coming for them, because we're coming for them. I think the offensive line is what we need to improve on and we've got seven good ones coming in. We're all going to go down there and work hard, and we're going to get an SEC Championship because I feel like we care more and we want it badder than past teams."
