“He’s awesome, he’s a tough kid. He’s physical. He goes into the game every week with the mindset (that) the quarterback is not going to get hit and my man is not going to make a tackle in the run game. However he has to do it, he’s just going to get the job done. We talk about Temple TUFF all the time, he’s the epitome of it.” - HC Geoff Collins 11/15/17
