Oregon Ducks Quarterback Marcus Mariota had a busy weekend after winning the Heisman Trophy on Saturday night. He spent Monday touring New York City with family and took some time to visit with some National Media including Dan Patrick and David Letterman. Patrick had some great questions for Mariota including how he talks in the Huddle, which he jokingly realized that Oregon does not have a huddle – well not very often anyway.

The Heisman Trophy winner was canded with Patrick when asked about his future and the possibility of going to the NFL. He mentioned the possibility of Grad School and said it would be a family decision, which Mariota has said all along.

Following his visit with Dan Patrick, Mariota went across town for a ‘Top Ten’ Appearance on the Late Show with David Letterman. At points he appeared somewhat uncomfortable, but the list was a hit. The best number on it was number three, “I’m Looking to Go Pro, Does New York Have Any Professional Sports Teams?” It had the biggest response from the crowd. Letterman then came over and handed the Heisman back to Mariota admitting that it was heavy. On Tuesday Mariota will return to Eugene to get ready for the College Football Playoff.
