This is my first year having the same position coach in back-to-back years. It's been kind of tough, but at the same time I feel like I learned the defense better playing different positions.

I look at it as trying to carry on that (Skyline) tradition. (The NFL) is definitely a goal of mine. It's in the back of my mind. People are telling me different stuff, but that's not what my focus is.

That's a massive amount of snow. It's like having concrete fall on you.

It's the length of three football fields and it's twice as deep the one closed mile 33.

You're accelerating, so you have that torque on the rear end, and as soon as you hit that black ice, it will spin you around in nothing flat. The problem is, you got the guy coming down in the truck.

Our estimation is that he's under about 30 feet of snow right now which is going to make it almost impossible to find him with poles or regular things that you would use in an avalanche type of situation.

There will be quite a heavy inquiry over the next few weeks and those people involved in specific offences will be brought to book.

The words that the avalanche expert used with us was that this was an extreme hazardous avalanche area. He said it's a red light area. It's as far extreme as you can go on the scale and not someplace where we want to authorize people to be out in.

The timing on this thing was just perfect.

We just never envisioned where it has gone now.
