Q&A with Joseph Fauria...

BlueandGold.com // Q&A: Joseph Fauria

BGI: Some people speculate that you might eventually become a tackle because of your size. Would you ever be interested in that?
JF: No. If people know who the Mackey Award winner was last year, Matt Spaeth from Minnesota, he was 6-7, 270. He did pretty well at tight end. If that doesn't answer the (tackle) question, I don't know what will.

-----Maybe that can quiet the people that keep saying he'll be an OT and sleep on his TE skills.

Well theres only 3 teams that could've done this...

BGI: Not that you would mention names or details, but was there any negative recruiting against Notre Dame?
JF: I did have a couple. Some teams that beat Notre Dame last year mentioned that, and some even had the nerve to get at me after I committed...but I didn't listen to it. I know I made the right choice

-------LSU had extended an offer, you can bet they were one. USC wasn't really recruiting him so I don't think it was them. I know Harbaugh visited him and Crist after they committed to us so you can bet he badmouthed us...but who knows. All in all it looks like we don't have to be worried about losing this one. He doesn't get shaken from ND struggles, he's an ND kid through and through.

1) What were the reasons you committed to Notre Dame?

- i comitted to Notre Dame for many different reasons. One was that i have been a ND follower since i was little. i even have a preschool picture of me wearing a Notre Dame T-shirt. On my visit to ND (first time) i was sold on everything ND has to offer. the campus, the academics, the Tradition, and of course, the great coaching staff, football program, and life after football oppurtunities. In the end, the reason why i chose ND was because it was the best place for ME!

2) Did knowing Dayne Crist help you decide on ND at all?

- Big 'D' likes to think i committed to Notre Dame all because he committed there, and although it is not the whole reason...i did tell dayne that the similar offers that we had would be more appealing. Also, he knew that wherever he committed, that would make me think of that school a little more.

3) How do you think you can contribute in the next few years?

- rite now i am focusing on my senior year,(dont like to look to far in the future). But i can say that when i get there, i want to become the best Tight End i can be.

4) What are your strengths? What are your weaknesses?

- one of my greatest assets is catching the ball. i also take alot of pride in my blocking. overall, there is alot of room to improve in every aspect of my game, and me being a very competitive player, i will never settle for mediocrity. Because i want to be the best.

5) Who was your second school and why?

- i didnt really have a second school(because none compare to ND). But some schools that were very close were: Oregon, Stanford, Ucla and Cal

6) How was the spring game visit for you? What was your favorite part about it?

- the spring game visit was a great experience. being that it was my first time at Notre Dame, it was great meeting all of my future teammates and getting to experience the ND tradition first hand. proabably the best part of the game was hanging with my future teammates and watching the TEs getting the ball alot.

7) Have you watched any tapes of how Weis utilizes the tight ends into his game plan? What were your thoughts on that?

- i haven't really watched any tapes, but i have watched games, especially because my uncle played for him, and i love how he uses the TE

8) What are your favorite things to do outside of football?

- i play basketball, and sometimes volleyball. when im not in season for football, im working out. i like music, and being with my friends, and enjoying the high school experience

I saw a video of him at a camp a few weeks back and he catches the ball very well. He has nice soft hands and he's the type that can go up high and get the ball because he catches with his hands.
