Here's my interview with Xander from his spring visit
On watching practice:
"It was great, I went here a month ago, and it was a walkthrough so getting the getting able to see the intensity of an actual practice, it was great."
"It's very intense, coach Cristobal is a very intense guy, he's doing a great job with the Miami program, I'm excited to see a game this year."
On RB coach Favian Upshaw:
"Coach Upshaw is a great guy, great coach, really knows what he's doing, helping out the younger guys." and it's a great, great, great room of guys in the running back room.
"He really wants the running back to be like the heartbeat of the team. He was a quarterback at George Southern so he really knows what he's doing. He calls the running back the second quarterback, because we can see everywhere on the field what the defense is doing."
"He's really good at the X's and O's, knows like the protections and stuff. He's been here a couple months, so excited to see what he's going to do in the future."
On top schools in his process:
"Miami is definitely one of my top choices right now, Florida, FSU, you know, those type of schools, but I'm still young, every school has a chance with me so far, so looking forward to visit more schools, visit some games during the season."
On what stands out about Miami:
"They've been showing a lot of interest in me, they've been telling me that they want me the most so far, the hospitality they've shown me is great."
"Coach Cristobal, Coach Upshaw, all the recruiting guys have been doing a great job with me so I'm excited to keep building this relationship in the future."
On relationship with former Bolles teammate and Miami OL JJ Sparks:
"He's given me some information about it, he loves it here, so there's no reason why I shouldn't love it here. It's great to catch up with my former teammates. Love him to death, hopefully be a teammate with him in the future."
