Alex Khvatov:  What was the most unique question that you had to answer during the interview process?

Patrick Lee:  The one question that they asked me was why I started only one full year.  Basically when I first got there in 2005 I started five games.  Then I developed tendonitis in my knee.  Someone jumped in and they took my place.  I rotated after that.  Then I got my chance last year when David Irons left.

Alex Khvatov:  How were you able to shutdown Vanderbilt’s talented wide receiver Earl Bennett last season when your team played them?

Alex Khvatov:  What is the highlight of your football career up to this point?

Patrick Lee:  You know one play stands out.  When I hit the fullback from Georgia last year and took him out of the game.  He was talking a lot.  The play before, he told me that I am not a hard hitter.  On the next play, I got a hit on him and he went out of the game.  I am sure that he will remember the hit for a long time.
