Personal Statement
I am a 5'10" Junior Quarterback who has played Slot Receiver and Kick Off Return from Grant Parish, Louisiana while maintaining a 3.5 GPA. I was a starter on the high school varsity team for the last 2 years and was nominated to be one of the captains for my upcoming senior year. I understand many boys dream and talk about playing at the next level, as I do myself. The thing that separates me from other boys is that I am willing to put in more hours of hard work than any other boy I have met. The last two years I have gotten up at 4 a.m. and have worked out 2 hours with personal trainers before going to school. Then I would continue my training an additional hour after football practice. I am not a seasonal athlete, where I only train during Spring Training. I love the game so much and have such a desire to be the best; I give my heart all 12 months of the year. I pray that I get the chance to prove my abilities and my love for the game at a college that has high academics as well as a great football program. I would love to play at the highest football level D1, but if I cannot start there I know my hard work, perseverance, love for the game, and dedication will eventually allow me to compete one day at the highest level. I don't believe in just talking about how good the team is, I believe in letting people see how good the team is by our performance. I know if I were on a good team and had the opportunity, that team and I could make an incredible impact. I grew up understanding that nothing is given to you, if you want it you have to work and earn it. When I get the opportunity I plan on doing just that, as I have always done. One last commitment that I make is that a coach doesn't have to worry about me getting into trouble because I spend almost all of my time in class, studying, or working out.
