Question: Does the fan base of the university make an impact on your recruitment?

Phillips: Yes I love a fan base, I want them to follow me @TheyCallMeSerg

Question: As an offensive line man, you receive no credit for the successful plays and you are criticized when you make a noticeable mistake. What is your favorite job as a member of the offensive line? Pass blocking? Run blocking?

Phillips: ”Run Blocking” is my specialty you get to run of the ball and go attack, and expect me to put you on your back.

Question: Name a college or NFL athlete that people compare you to. What college or NFL athlete do you idolize and how do their skill sets match yours?

Phillips: I feel that I can compare myself to Ndamukong Suh the Detroit lions defensive tackle, because we have the same personality even though he plays on the defense side of the ball.
