E: Who were some of the coaches/players that were talking to you and what did they say?
DF: Coach Rumph, Coach Banda, Coach Dugans, CB Sheldrick Redwine & Rayshawn Jenkins, the coaches were telling me that i performed well and i still have a lot of time to grow. Coach Dugans and me were laughing because, i kept telling him i was locking down his WR's and he was joking around saying i got beat every time."
E: What are your thought about the new coaching staff?
DF: So far all of the coaches that I know have been really nice and welcoming, it seems like they're acknowledge my talent and they're not over looking me.
E: What are your thoughts on Miami overall?
DF: Overall I think Miami is a great school from what I've seen so far, it a great campus and I've grown up watching them so they have always been my favorite team."
