Deion Burks Interview | Oklahoma 51, Temple 3

did great for the fans man fans came showed out Walker Champions had me excited honestly it just a great experience did you anticipate a first game like this three touchdowns I mean um I mean it was great it was great touchdown that it happened honestly but I mean just with the plays I practice just getting reps with j and everything like that you know something's good to come out of it so was a great thing to see you didn't have sort of the the speed plays that I think a lot of people expect you to make and that you've made in your career but to have the impact is that what does that mean to you to do that I don't man it just mean like it's a lot more out there that that can happen honestly like um just great just situational football Man team football just know why I fit in that just playing ball what has it been like working with Jackson getting that chemistry down and how do you feel like the offense played tonight as a whole um I feel like it's great with Jackson honestly man I feel like I look at him like more of a older dude honestly not even like a freshman or whatever you would say that he is but honestly um I feel like offense played pretty well tonight um had a couple jobs out there that we wish we could get back but we just going correct from it learn learn from it look at him was us about J time what's that been like for you guys a unit Jade now trying to kind of Step Up and fill that cor um yeah man unfortunately them guys got hurt man I don't really want to speak too much about their situation but honestly we just need more people to step up man it's like honestly The Season's going to bring these things that try to bring you down honestly but it's just about who step up and take that spot next and just go honestly could you had a better debut than what you had tonight um I mean it was great out there honestly tonight um I mean I probably could have feel like I left a little couple players out there that I wish I could have probably got on or me and Jackson could have connected on but man we got a great D great team win so it was a great thing out there you feel that on the on the sideline you feel like the weight of like I I need to go to this next level um can you repeat that question I'm sorry do you feel the like the weight of the moment on the sideline when you know that someone like jal's going down yeah most death it's definitely somebody got to step up bring the energy on the sideline man when you got a player like Jal man that go down like somebody got to step up and bring that energy man and try to replace his energy honestly so it's like yeah man let's let's get this going man cuz I know that's J want out L you had a couple touchdowns in the spring game your first game here three today four next week let's hope so man I hope it's four next week honestly it's going up that's it's a trendon you announced this week you're donating part of your with each catch just what was your decision making there and and how much does that cause mean to you oh man the cause mean a lot to me honestly man I'm not hiding from it of course everybody know about the situation with Fi and stuff like that as well but um man this just greater cause honestly it's just trying to give back and just not everything be about me man just be about other people and help other people cuz it open my eyes to a situation honestly got the ball in your hands early today what what did that mean to you as a transer coming into this program what they mean to you for you to get like the first most def man I feel like it's a great thing man that the coaches believe in me to give me the ball early man just to get me going to get a feel of the game get a fill of the ball man I feel like it's a great thing that we got that type of trust man I hope we keep going on understand we W going to open up the whole Playbook tonight but still getting you involved in the running game how how big is that for you kind of going forward to start getting that part of the Reps down and chemistry behind all that stuff man it's a big thing man honestly it's good man just honestly just being able to move different spots man just seeing what coach tra do with me as well just moving me trying to do little emotions create confusion with the defense man I feel like it's a great thing I like was saying you know obviously he's a guy from a smaller school and transfers he only has one offer coming in but he said the two of you came on your official visit together and so the idea that you're both now in this position is not too farfetched but is it at all sort of like pinch me like wow that he and you are did what you did today man I honestly don't I feel like everything happened for a reason honestly man just when we first came up here it was inst connect man just honestly V is leader first day he came in he was vocal and stuff like that of course you're the new guy coming to a new school same with me like I'm a new guy coming to same school but man it's a standard here I mean I want to be held to the standard too as well and I'm held everybody else in Stand Co want me to do that so I mean I feel like it's a great thing coming from Purdue what's it like playing here at this place now that you you've got a full full game under your belill man um all respect all respect to purdum man I love Purdue man it did a lot of things good for me man honestly here just with the Walker Champions man I just I was just smiling like God man this is crazy man the love here is definitely crazy the atmosphere is crazy man so just want to do that for the fans with you know not too many passing yards tonight how much room does this offense have you know just to keep getting better and better man it we got so much potential man just to keep going and keep climbing honestly man you got some people that we probably didn't even see honestly man as the week's going on like I feel like this is starting point and honestly just going to keep going up and up do you feel any pressure today um yes honestly I always do during the game honestly like you just go out there like B going have little butterflies and stuff like that but I mean um just do what you do honestly at practice practice I feel like Co DV do a good job of make it practice harder than game so honestly just to play loose and just do what you do coach vable said that you I mean you're a guy that's know to always have a smile on your face but he pointed out how competitive you are what is what does that look like that we see I mean we see the what happens on the field but what does that competitiveness look like in practice playing cards I mean I don't know like where does that come out a lot of bleeps at practice with the defense honestly uh it's it's man defense is great honestly defense will frustrate you because he's like God it's an experienced defense they've been playing together playing the ball a long time so if uh it's not going to go your way all the time offense going against our defense so just like but I mean it's just competitive love see yeah what when are you most competitive outside of football outside of football um I'll say sho I'm playing a billy or something on NCA honestly I don't want to lose I feel like that's another thing got it got your defense had six takeaways tonight which is the most in 2003 as a wide receiver how does that make your job so much easier I'm honestly I'm not surprised for the defense you see it every day at practice honestly like man them boys are ball hws they go straight for the ball um creating confusion on the D line man like them boys is real experiencing real good so I mean it it just makes because it's like let's go offense again so honestly I just love it man great thing
