Sometimes you have success and not so much success versus certain people.

As a college student, you're depending on your scholarship money, money your parents send you. So I guess when people start talking about big figures, it doesn't hit me.

I just try to do the things I feel cause me success. I work hard and do the things that come naturally.

In football, you are going to have highs and lows, and you have to recognize when you have new opportunities and walk in those.

You begin to take on the mentality of your coach. If he feels so confident, then I feel confident.

Rex Ryan is definitely a very confident individual and, when you have someone who believes firmly in what he's speaking, you naturally absorb it.
