ESPN: VY Interview

From Espn.com, Matt Mosley's interview with Vince Young.

It's not much...but it's something during this slow period.

Hash: What was Pacman Jones like as a teammate and how do you think he'll fare in Dallas?

VY: Pacman's a great guy. The fans will really, really love him. I think he's gotten away from that type of crowd that was bringing him down. It wasn't Pacman. Just talk to Deion [Sanders]. He'll tell you what he's like. He's a big-hearted person. He doesn't want to mess up again, and I think he'll be great for the Cowboys. When he'd go out with guys like me and Keith Bullock and Kyle Vanden Bosch, he was great. He loves to bowl, and he never caused any trouble.

Hash: What was he like on the practice field?

VY: He was very competitive. He wouldn't let no one throw to his side during practice. He'd get upset if you completed a pass to his side and take it personally. He talked a lot of trash and was very physical. I talked to him last week and he said, 'Texas football is really Texas football.' I told him that's all you got to do is focus on football.

Hash: Do you ever regret skipping your final season of college?

VY: Somewhat, yeah, I do. Getting another year under my belt might've helped me mature. But I've been fortunate to know people like Steve McNair. I've been living fast for my age. Since I was a 6-year-old, I've been hanging around people that are older than me. I look at situations like Ced's and know that if you don't pay attention, it could happen to you. I've been living the fast life, but I think I already have myself prepared for whatever I'll face.
