Round 1

Question from Scotty:
What was your most memorable moment playing football for Notre Dame?
Trevor's Answer:
Has to be USC 2005. Best game ever, only the final score didn't turn out the way we wanted. When we warmed up in our home blues, and then walked into the locker room and saw those green jerseys...we were pumped beyond belief. The atmosphere for that game was on another level. I'll never forget it.

Question from NDCOOP:
You are awesome!  Just wondered how you felt about your experience at ND.  Any regrets about not going somewhere else?  Do most of the players seem content at ND?
Trevor's Answer:
Thanks man! Absolutely never do I regret going to ND. The friends I've made here I wouldn't trade for anything. They are literally the type of people that I'll know the rest of my life. That doesn't happen at every school. Plus, if football doesn't work out, or once I'm done, I'll always have the ND degree which will always mean something in the business world. As for players being content, everyone is different. Not every player is going to love it, but overall I'd say we had a very close team.

Question from Sean:
Trevor, I'm very concerned about the depth issues on the irish d-line for 2008 with your departure and the questions surrounding Pat Kuntz. Do you see any players that have thus far recieved little to no playing time being able to step in and fill the void?
Trevor's Answer:
Well, if Kuntz has to sit out next year, then that will obviously hurt the depth at d-line. There are some great players though that I'm sure will step up next year. A couple of those are Ian Williams and Justin Brown. Look for both of those players to be big time next year. I'm guessing a freshman or two will have to step up as well due to depth issues.

Question from Sally:
If you could choose, where would you like to play nfl football?
Trevor's Answer:
To tell you the truth, the team that drafts me will instantly become my favorite team!! However, if I had my choice, being close to my family in MN would be hard to beat.

Question from Mike E:
I know you're from Minnesota and its usually pretty cold up there. Do you do any snowboarding or any other action sports?
Trevor's Answer:
Actually, I do like to throw down in some action sports. Both of my brothers are big time into wakeboarding and snowboarding, so I definitely like doing both of those. However, I have to admit I'm more of a skier than snowboarder. On the water is really I really shine though, as I love wakeskating and wakesurfing as well. My brother Drew has a boat so we're out there as much as possible in the summer when I have time off.

Question from Richard R:
What round do the so called experts predict you be drafting? I hope you get drafted by my Giants because I know you are going to be a beast in the NFL. P.S. Justin Tuck would also like to see you in a Giant uniform.
Trevor's Answer:
I'm not totally sure where the "experts" have me slotted yet, but my goal is to work hard, keep getting better and hopefully make an impact on someone. I've heard all kinds of things, anywhere from the 2nd round to the 5th round. It's so early that it's hard to say though. After the combine things become a lot more clearer. Oh, and tell Tuck I say what up!

Question from Matt:
I see you're a fan of Modest Mouse and Flaming Lips, have you ever listened to Band of Horses?  If you haven't you should check them out.  Great mellow music.  Good luck in the NFL!
Trevor's Answer:
I have heard of Band of Horses. I really like their song "Is There A Ghost". I haven't listened to them as much as the Lips or Modest, but maybe I'll have to check them out more. Thanks for the tip!

Question from Kristin:
I've read that you love to cook.  What meal do you most like to make for yourself?  I am a diehard ND fan and you were the best part of the season this past fall.  Thanks for always giving your all.  Go Irish!!!!!!
Trevor's Answer:
You are on the the money with that one...I love to cook...and obviously eat! I'm a big fan of BBQ Chicken on the grill. I like to make my own sauce with some special seasonings, and grill the chicken just right. That's hard to beat. Oh, and thanks for the kind words.
