Isiah Swann

Cornerback / Dartmouth

 

Alex Khvatov:  What was your major in college?

 

Isiah Swann:  Environmental studies.  I have graduated already.    

 

Alex Khvatov:  What do you want to do with your life after your football career is over? 

 

Isiah Swann:  Football is my thing now.  I haven’t thought about it.  Maybe energy consulting. 

 

Alex Khvatov:  Your ball skills are superb.  How have you been able to develop that knack for the ball? 

 

Isiah Swann:  Preparing and anticipating routes.  You look at where the QB is looking and where your help is.  You take all of those factors in.  I am usually in the right spot. 

 

Alex Khvatov:  How did you wind up at Dartmouth? 

 

Isiah Swann:  I had most of the Ivy League schools interested in me.  I had all of the academies.  I went to Harvard, Air Force and Dartmouth.  Dartmouth was actually one of the first schools that recruited me.  Coach T was in contact with me.  He seemed like a really genuine guy.  He cared about his players.  I took a visit up there.  I fell in love with the people.  They weren’t snooty.  They were down to earth and genuine.  I felt comfortable there.  I felt at home.         

 

Alex Khvatov:  What are your strengths?

 

Isiah Swann:  I bring ball skills.  I am always going to be super prepared for the offense and the receivers in general.  I have good anticipation and recognition. 

 

Alex Khvatov:  Who was the toughest WR to go up against in practice today?

 

Isiah Swann:  The guy from Louisiana (Ja’Marcus Bradley).    

 

Alex Khvatov:  What areas of your game are you trying to improve upon? 

 

Isiah Swann:  Overall quickness.  I feel like every DB can work on it.  I am getting down the technicalities of the scheme here at the Shrine Game.  It is a new scheme than what I was used to in college.  Shooting hands and pressing at the line. 

 

Alex Khvatov:  How would you sum up your career? 

 

Isiah Swann:  I came to this school for the Championship.  It is what we accomplished during my senior year.     

 

Alex Khvatov:  What one word best describes you?
