Throughout fall camp, InsideHilltopperSports.com is catching up with some of the newcomers on the football team. Tuesday, we spoke with freshman safety B.J. Crim. Here is what the Florida native had to say.

- How has fall camp been going for you overall so far?

"Practice has been great. I'm learning and the guys have been helping me in the safety room big time. We're producing. Playing wise, I'm playing every play like it's my last down. I've just been learning and taking it step by step and taking all the information from the coaches."

- What's the biggest difference between college and high school camps when you think back to this time last year?

"It's much faster. The playbook is more detailed. Just the concept of being deeper at the safety position. It's a different scheme for me, so it's a big adjustment but I'm working."

- When stepped foot on campus this summer, what was the biggest adjustment for you in terms of college lifestyle and being a student athlete?

"Workouts were natural for me. I love working out and putting in work and just perfecting my craft. Transitioning from high school to college, the classes have been easy and workouts I take serious everyday. I gotta be prepared in the weight room to be prepared on the field."

- What all have you learned from the upperclassmen in your position group?

"They are teaching me to just keep working and never give up. I'm going to have a lot of ups and downs. They are teaching me the plays, right from wrong. They are helping me with my craft. My technique has been getting better. My knowledge with the playbook has grown a lot. They just help me and motivate me to keep grinding and never give up."

- Go back to your recruiting process, you signed with WKU late, just talk about what sold you on Western Kentucky and why you decided to come here?

"Western just had a big family vibe to me. I always have the love and family connections with all the coaches here and that's what really brought me in."

- What have you learned from your position coach so far?

"He just taught me to play more patiently. I'm a real physical guy, so he wants me to work more on my technique so I can get out there and play more because as a safety you have to be deeper in college than I was in high school. He's teaching me how to learn the playbook at a good pace to where I don't learn to much to fast and mess up my head."

- For Western Kentucky fans that haven't watched you play, what do you bring to the table?

"I bring a lot to the table. I'm physical. I've got good ball skills. I'm just a competitor and I love to work."
