Senior Brian Gonzalez is going to be a member of the Southern Connecticut State University football team this fall. Advocate Staff Reporter Ryan Woods interviewed Gonzalez about his upcoming season at SCSU.

Ryan Woods: What are your feelings on playing college football next season at SCSU?

Brian Gonzalez: I’m excited and honored to be playing at SCSU. It took a lot of stress and emails to get where I am now, and I’m blessed to have the opportunity to play.

RW: What is the hardest thing to walk away from at Jonathan Law?

BG: The hardest thing to walk away from Law is probably all my friends. I care a lot about them and have made a ton of moments with them especially in high school. 

RW: What do you think is going to be the most challenging thing about playing college football?

BG: I think the most challenging part of college football is going to be responsibilities. You’ll learn all the plays no matter how many, you’ll get stronger and prepared to play, but if you’re not responsible and accountable you’re definitely going to struggle.

RW: What are your goals at SCSU next season?

BG: My goals for the SCSU is to develop into an athlete that consistently grows and can compete with grown men. I have not capped my physical limits yet but I can’t wait to do it properly.

RW: If you could play any position on the field besides your current position, what would it be and why? 

BG: If I were to not play wide receiver I would play linebacker because I’d be a lurk artist.
