OL George Asafo-Adjei (Kentucky) Interview

George Asafo-Adjei
Offensive Lineman
Kentucky

Ed Hunt:  How did it feel out there at the Pro Day?

George Asafo-Adjei:  It felt good.  I was prepared.  Coach A got us right.  I just let it rip.  I didn’t think too much about anything.  I did what I do.  I know I was pretty athletic, so this was my time to shine.

Ed Hunt:  You put up 30 reps on the bench.  Is that your best?

George Asafo-Adjei:  That’s the best I’ve done, but I was honestly shooting for higher.  But I went 30 reps.  I would have been able to pop out more, but I was happy with the result.

Ed Hunt:  What’s your best fit on the offensive line?

George Asafo-Adjei:  Right tackle and right guard.  I could play left tackle and left guard, but I’m comfortable at right.

Ed Hunt:  What other positions are you able to play?

George Asafo-Adjei:  Left guard, left tackle and I feel like I am athletic enough to play defensive tackle.  Anything crazy like that.

Ed Hunt:  What are your biggest strengths in your mind?

George Asafo-Adjei:  My biggest strength is definitely mental toughness and physical strength.  I’m a leader.  I work hard, learn fast and I’m a huge faith guy.  I believe in bringing a change to a team, bringing a winning mentality and a belief in all of my teammates.

Ed Hunt:  What is one thing you are working on between now and the draft?

George Asafo-Adjei:  Flexibility.  I am going to definitely work on my speed, strength and football IQ stuff.  Coach Schlarman has done a great job of teaching me, but you can never know too much.  I’m going to definitely work on those things.
