RRS’s Will McKay has Q&A’s with Nik Shimonek, Breiden Fehoko and Gary Moore. I really liked the one with Fehoko the most, he talks a bit about some of his defensive line mates and true freshmen who have made an impact, Joe Wallace and Noah Jones. Here’s a bit on Fehoko talking about playing next to Ondre Pipkins:
“Man, I love playing next to Big Pip. Big, violent dude, and he’s someone I can really rely on there to eat up space with me on the inside, to help make space for the linebackers. That’s what I look forward to. When you have someone you can trust next to you – heck, even Broderick (Washington) or Mych (Thomas) – I can trust those guys. For Pip, he’s come along from sitting out last year. He’s worked hard. He’s come along really well, gotten himself into playing shape. I think he’s down to 305 now. He was twitchy before, and he’s getting even more twitchy now.”
