Aggie Flashback with former LB Justin Warren Part Two

Key quotes from Justin Warren interview

“I was really committed after the coaching change was made, I was pretty solid. Oklahoma was my second choice, so they opened back up to me and I thought about it. I knew A&M as far as the school and academics and the program go and it was close to home. It was really Texas A&M that was in my heart, it was one of those things that I knew was right. I know it was a great choice all the way.”

“Still to this day, 77-0 was the worst sports loss I’ve ever taken in my life. It was fun to be out there for a little bit, I could hear the fans from the side lines yelling 'Warren you should have come to OU' and 'How are you liking A&M now?' It was one of those welcome to college football experiences.”

“One of my favorite memories was catching the interception against Wyoming when they came to our house. We were a heavy favorite but we weren’t blowing them out like we were supposed to, but I think it was 21-0 before the half. The first play when we came back out there, it came right to me and I scored a touchdown. That’s one of the memories as far as that season that stuck out to me.”

“It was a great feeling to beat Texas in Austin my senior year as underdogs, that was great. That bus ride home was a great experience.”

“In a defensive coordinator, you need somebody that’s fiery, that understands and knows his personnel inside and out, and not just on the field because defense mostly is mental. Your screws have to be a little loose, you want to hear the crowd when you hit somebody hard.”

“Daeshon Hall and Myles Garrett are beasts, they can be a lot better if they get around the right people. I like how they used them this past year but we need some guys to step up on the back end.”
