Q&A with QB Mitch Trubisky

Posted Dec 8, 2012
Was there any pressure put on you to remain in (your home) state and become a Buckeye? Mitch Trubisky: "Well, there kind of was. They had a quarterback commit before I was ready to commit so after they had their quarterback, I started to look elsewhere. I found North Carolina and I really liked it, I love the system and the coaches and I was ready to pull the trigger at that time so I decided on North Carolina. There has been some pressure back and forth but I am very pleased with my decision." (Keeping It Heel)
