Nicholas Gossage '18 Recruiting Profile

"Change the game don't let the game change you." I believe to change the game you need to put the time and work in.  Even when you don't want to.  Getting up early when you are tired to work.  My collegiate goals and aspirations;  I want to go to a college that best fits me with my goals.  Also to go to a college that I would love to play football and live there for 4 to 5 years and be able to enjoy being there and playing football for that team.  And another goal of mine is that I would love to play for any college.  And realize that I need to get a good education and get my degree in History to become a History major.  I believe I'm a good candidate for a college team because I work hard in and out of school.  I've been working out in the offseason and working on my speed and strength to play varsity.  What makes me different from other recruits is I'm a dedicated athlete and have a big heart for football.  I am very passionate when it comes to games and practices in athletics.  I strive to be the best at my position so I wont be moved from first string to second string.  Regarding academics, I've never gotten anything lower than a C and I have never missed a game due to grades.  I do realize that grades are more important and I want a good education.  I am striving to do the best I can on my grades and be a great student athlete.  Student to me comes first rather than football.  My education and grades are what are going to get me places and were I want to go and do with my life.
