Talkin' with Trav: A conversation with Austin Collie

Collie: As far as the magic deal, I still believe that when you're doing things right in your life, the Lord presents you with blessings and opportunities to excel.

Hansen: What is your favorite scripture?

Collie: Doctrine and Covenants 6:36 'Doubt not, fear not.' It's simple and true. It's really all you need in life and what it all comes down to in life. Whenever doubt, fear and/or loss of hope arises, or whenever you are going through struggles, our Heavenly Father is always with you and can help you no matter what is going on in your life.

Hansen: Your little brother Dylan will play wide receiver for BYU next season. What advice would you give him and other young athletes?

Collie: Be patient. Expect yourself to be perfect but know you won't be perfect. Work ethic exceeds talent. Work hard and believe in your dreams.

Hansen: Where do you see yourself in 10 years?

Collie: I hope to still be playing in the NFL. I would love to play for 12 or 13 years.
