Found his quote
quote:

Surtain chose Southern Miss because the coaching staff assured him he’d have a chance to play quarterback. That was the reason he overlooked in-state power LSU, which wanted to put the elite athlete in the secondary. “LSU, ironically, wanted me to play defensive back,” Surtain smiled as he leaned back at his desk. “I wanted to play quarterback. When I got to Southern Miss, on the second day of practice, they moved me to defensive back, so lucky me! It worked out well, though, so I can’t complain.”
