I never thought, growing up, I'd be a TV host.

As long as I have beaches, some good friends around me, it's 75 degrees and sunny, I'm good.

I did make National Honors Society in high school.

As time goes on you're getting more knowledge of your playbook and football, and you just pick it up a lot easier. Lining up everywhere is just second nature to me now.

I'd go at anyone. I took all of my brothers' bull. It made me who I am.

Me not working hard? Yeah, right - picture that with a Kodak.

My brother's got two degrees. He got one for me.
