Personal Statement
Coaches my name is Matthew Allen, I am a transitioning two sport athlete and play TE/DE in high school. I understand my body type makes me a good project for offensive tackle in college. As a 6'8" player I only weighed 215 last (21-22) season. I committed last winter and summer to my my body and football. I skipped travel and summer basketball to lift and work out. I am currently 245 pounds and recently during a camp (June 2022) I I ran a 5.25 40 yard dash. That was .4 seconds faster than when I was 215 last year.
I am bought in to becoming a significant force on an offensive line in college . I am working towards a solid 6'8" 280-300 over the next 3 years. I am committed to earning a higher education and playing football for a program that fosters development.
Thank you for your time and I hope you will consider me.
