Just a quick take here, but this is great content by NC State Athletics. It’s engaging for all ages, it humanizes the players and it helps fans get to know the players. Oh, and honestly, in today’s world where players are numb to media attention and old guys interviewing them for website clicks, it might be the move to have kids do the interviews. They keep it simple. The players get into great detail and open up more, and there’s an element of humor to it. The only problem might be those pesky child labor laws. (We’re kidding.)
