JimmiJo Posted May 6, 2006 Share Posted May 6, 2006 ES Interviewed the following players today: Safety Reed Doughty Offensive Guard Kili Lefotu Running Back Mike Imoh The following is the transcript of the interviews: S Reed Doughty ES Interview Q. How did it feel out there today? A. It felt good. You know, it’s a little more humid than Colorado. Q. Yea? Well stick around. A. I know. This is summer in Colorado in this heat. I felt great. Obviously coming into Rookie Camp I was a little rusty. It’s just nice to get out and get to work. Q. What do you hope the coaches see in you? A. Just that I’m gonna know what I am doing. Obviously I’m gonna make some mistakes being a rookie but hopefully I won’t make them again and hopefully I will contribute on special teams and hopefully earn a backup spot. Q. What do you think your strongest attribute is? A. I love football because it’s football. I think I play the game of football well. I think, just knowing the run, playing the pass, playing the zone, you know, special teams – I like playing all aspects of football. A. So your goal here is definitely to make the team and… B. Definitely. That’s got to be your first goal, because I know that none of the rosters spots are a given. It’s 53 guys, it’s real tough. I’m excited about the opportunity just to make the team and I hope it goes well. OG Kili Lefotu ES Interview Q. How did it feel out there today? A. I felt pretty good I felt, studying last night I felt prepared. I just went in and tried to go full speed. Q. What do you think your strongest attribute is? What is the best thing you bring? A. The best thing I bring is just a hard work ethic. I’ll never quit. And when the coach tells me to do something I’m gonna do it. Q. What’s your impression of the coaches and the pace? A. The pace is unbelievable - unbelievably fast. The coaches try to settle it down a little bit but getting into practice it was unbelievably fast but I started getting my bearings and things slowed down a bit. Q. Awesome, well we’ll see you tomorrow and maybe you will have a moment then. A. Thank you. RB Mike Imoh ES Interview Q. A lot of guys were asking about you saying ‘make sure you look out for this guy.’ We’ve got a lot of Tech fans. How did it feel out there today? A. It felt good. It felt good to be back out on the field you know. I’m just trying to make it happen – trying to make the most of every opportunity. Q. Anything strike you, anything noteworthy, any play that you had that you thought went real well? A. It was alright. This is the first day and you have your bumps and bruises, and you have your good plays. You just want to have more good plays than you do bad plays. Q. What about the pace, was it real quick? A. You know it’s fast, but you know the thing is, maybe it’s just me but the hard part is getting the play. Once you get that play down, football is football. The speed of the game almost seemed the same to me – it don’t even seem that bad to me. Q. What do you hope the coaches notice about you? A. I reckon that I can play. That’s it. I can play period. Simple as that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
