LB Cassh Maluia (Wyoming) Pro Day Interview

Cassh Maluia

Linebacker / Wyoming

 

Ed Hunt:  How did it feel out there?  How do you feel you did in the drills?

Cassh Maluia:  I definitely felt I did my best.  All glory to god and hopefully I turned some heads today.

Ed Hunt:  I noticed you had one where they misplaced the ball and then you came back and made a great catch, covering. Talk to me about mentality and how that’s important in these high-pressure situations?

Cassh Maluia:  Just to have fun like you are playing in your backyard.  Dropping the ball, I play on defense so…It touched my hands and I should have caught it.

Ed Hunt:  Can you talk to me about Logan Wilson.  Being in the same linebacker room with him.  Tell me about what kind of guy he is.

Cassh Maluia:  I came in the class after Logan Wilson.  He told me to give it my all, all the time.  Make a bad play and come back the next day and get your best play in.  He taught me about short-term memory because I would always keep myself there.  He taught me that.

Ed Hunt:  What are your strengths?

Cassh Maluia:  Just reacting to the play we haven’t seen.

Ed Hunt:  Are you a big film junkie?

Cassh Maluia:  Yeah, big film guy.  Always.  They just taught me to get in the meeting room and that’s the number one preparation for the week.

Ed Hunt:  Did you play any other sports in high school competitively?

Cassh Maluia:  I did.  110m high hurdles and that was it.

Ed Hunt:  How does the track atmosphere compare to a pro day atmosphere?

Cassh Maluia:  It’s a lot of eyes on you just like the football field.  This is nothing different to me.  Just going out there and doing the best you can.

Ed Hunt:  Did you come in with a plan for what you wanted to show the scouts today?

Cassh Maluia:  I really wanted to show them that I’ve got nothing on my plate and I’m hungry.  I’m willing to go out there for my team for whichever team I go to, no matter what and just give it my all.  Do the best I can.
