Onebar: What are you plans in the coming months leading up to the NFL Draft?
Alize Mack: Leading up to the draft, I want to stay focused on the things I can improve on. Right now I am training with some great people at EXOS and working on improving my strength and speed. Those are two important parts of my game and I want to make sure I hit the best possible numbers I can at the Combine in Indy. After the Combine, I want to get right back into "football shape" and make sure I am as well prepared for team visits as possible. So far, things have been going great, and I just want to continue to improve each day.

Onebar: Toughest part about leaving Notre Dame for the NFL Draft?
Alize Mack: The toughest part about leaving Notre Dame for the NFL Draft was saying goodbye to my teammates and coaches. Notre Dame is truly a special place, and to have had the opportunity to grow as a person, athletically, academically and spiritually was an awesome experience. It’s been one hell of a 4 years at Notre Dame and I wouldn’t change a thing.

Onebar: What part of your game needs the most polishing?
Alize Mack: I think I play a pretty complete game as a tight end. I'm very confident in both my blocking as well as route running/catching ability. Having said that, I try and improve every day, so I will continue to work on all aspects of my game. Tight end is a unique position that requires o-line skills as well as receiver skills, so each day I try and polish at least one of those areas so I can be as complete of a player as possible.

Onebar: Greatest moment on and off the field during your college career?
Alize Mack: My greatest moment on the field during my college career was scoring 2 touchdowns in a Florida State win on Senior Night. Through all the ups and downs I’ve gone through at Notre Dame, to walk away with a win in my last home game ever in that stadium; it couldn’t have went a better way.

Onebar: Best part about being part of the Notre Dame Family?
Alize Mack: The best part about being a part of the Notre Dame family is because it is just that, family. Notre Dame is a place of spirituality, love, character, personality, and vision. To be a part of the Irish family was something that I’ll forever cherish in my heart.

Onebar: Notre Dame has turned into Tight End U, in your eyes, who is the greatest tight end to come out of Notre Dame?
Alize Mack: In my eyes the greatest tight end to come out of Notre Dame was hands down, Tyler Eifert. The guy was a pure mismatch freak!

Onebar: What can we catch Alize Mack doing on an off day?
Alize Mack: On an off day you can catch Alizé recovering, sleeping, eating , and watching Netflix.

Onebar: Using one word, describe your style of play.
Alize Mack: Mismatch.
