This will be great practice for his discussion next year about winning the heisman and national championship next season.  Could you ask for a classier kid?  He obviously enjoys being a wolverine.

That's how a real QB gives an interview. Praises the team before himself. Not to mention when he was asked about practice, " I just hope its fun".  Outstanding athlete and person.

next year?

what about this year!?

I was penciling him in for 357 yards and 6 TDs on the ground, with another 4 through the air in front of his family and friends at the Gator Bowl!

In all seriousness, I think Denard's going to have his best game yet in Jacksonville. Surpass Touchdown Tim for yards in a season... that'd be pretty killer.

Can't say it enough but man do I enjoy rooting for this kid every weekend. He embodies all the qualities you look for in a team leader. Looking forward to seeing all the great moments yet to come from this young man. GO BLUE

I think if I saw Denard on the street I would be forced to confront an irresistable urge to hug him. I think I would succumb, but I bet he wouldn't even kick my ass.

You can read about this and many other musings in my new book, "Rhymes with 'True Grace': 1,207 Reasons Why I Love Denard Robinson."

Wow that interview is awesome! Denard is just the man, that smile and his humility makes me smile every time I see him. He truly is the type of person who brings a smile to everyones face.

Every interview I see or read that DR does is always classy. He always shines the light away from himself and gives credit to God,family, his teammates and coaches.

Is just like that (not that this needs to be said again, but still).  My girlfriend's roommate works at the Pizza Hut in the union and Denard came one day and they started talking.  Eventually he kind of figured out her schedule and kept coming when she was working, and she said he was always very polite, humble, quiet, and shy.  

My gf and I saw him once while visiting and said hi and smiled and he did the same back, he was very respectful and it's really a breathe of fresh air compared to most people today, let alone student-athletes.  Unbelievable.  You can't not like the guy.
