| 0:00.0 | Back here on the Michigan Insider on the Big 1050WTKA online, the big 1050.com. |
| 0:05.4 | I heard from Zeke Berry and Andrew Marsh in the previous segment. |
| 0:08.2 | Let's got a couple more players they hit to before we get to the top of the hour. |
| 0:13.3 | And we'll start off with the transfer from the University of Utah. |
| 0:19.2 | It was mentioned during this media veil that he doesn't look like a defensive tackle, |
| 0:26.4 | but he is that. |
| 0:28.9 | It's Jonah Leia. |
| 0:30.8 | So get ready to pronounce that one. |
| 0:33.0 | And here he is with the media from yesterday on the Big 1050 WTCA online the Big 1050.com. |
| 0:39.2 | We've talked to a lot of your former teammates in the last couple days who also made the |
| 0:43.0 | jump over here. What was your reason for coming to Michigan? I think it was an opportunity to |
| 0:47.7 | play for the Big Ten and it was just too good to pass up with the coaching staff that I already |
| 0:53.0 | knew. And when you look at the past for DeLiaman at Michigan, I can't remember the last time, but the deal lineman hasn't been drafted out of Michigan, so that's kind of my reasoning. In the back left corner, Alhandro. Nice to meet you. Welcome. If you could offer a bit of a self-scout, what do you feel like you bring from a playing perspective to this deal-line? I think I bring a lot of speed inside, which is something that you don't see too often. |
| 1:15.6 | And I think I'm able to use my athletic ability to make plays. |
| 1:19.6 | So that's probably my answer. |
| 1:22.6 | I stand on your left towards the front there, Clayton. |
| 1:25.6 | What has Larry Black brought to the room? |
| 1:50.0 | He's brought a lot of intensity. That's something that I enjoy. And I think he's been targeting a lot of the deficiencies I had last year, which is really helpful. So he's a good coach. Over to you right now, about halfway back there, Tony. Yeah, hey, John. Tony here, sir. Good to meet you. I mean mean this is our first time meeting you and we knew you're a DT but you look like not as wide as I say some of the defense tackles do you always are you at your playing weight |
| 1:54.2 | did you slim down move up or like how does I'm still on my way up last year I played a little |
| 1:59.9 | light but yeah I'm still on my way up. Last year I played a little light. But yeah, I'm still trying to gain more weight just so I can hold that better in the run. |
