Potential Interview Questions for Niners All-Pro Linebacker Patrick Willis

If I could interview anyone on the 49ers roster, my choice would be Patrick Willis. My dad is a professor at Ole Miss University, and he was able to see Willis play for four years. When I told my dad that the Niners had drafted Willis in 2007, he was excited for me as a fan and the 49ers as a franchise. 

Here are some questions I'd want to ask the All-Pro linebacker if I had the chance:

Why did you choose to go to Ole Miss University?

What do you think about Michael Oher’s path to the NFL?  Did you want the 49ers to draft him?
