00:00I know a lot of the offensive skill players get a lot of love,

00:02but it's a high-paced, fast, quick, up-tempo offense.

00:07How do you guys stay conditioned up front?

00:09What are the things you do to prepare yourself

00:11to do so many plays in the game?

00:13Yeah, just trying to work as hard as you can

00:15in our practice, like finishing every play.

00:17You know, going to the whistle is blown

00:19and making sure that you're just doing it just

00:20like it is a game.

00:21And then after practice yesterday,

00:23I mean, our coaches are holding us to a standard

00:25and we're conditioned after practice as well.

00:27So they're keeping us in shape and just

00:29trying to finish the plays as hard as we can.

00:31So, yeah.

00:33Any questions?

00:37King, your coach even just referred to you

00:39and some people have called you the nation's most well-known walk-on.

00:43So I want to ask, could you have even predicted this success

00:46this quickly early on in your freshman year?

00:49I mean, honestly, no.

00:50I mean, I honestly just thought as an opportunity.

00:54I mean, nobody really, as a walk-on really dreams of all these,

00:58thinking of all these big things.

01:00But I mean, when you really get that opportunity,

01:02you just got to take advantage of it.

01:03And I think it's just played out like that.
