Ryan Bishop ‘17 Recruiting Profile

Personal Statement

I have two collegiate goals and aspirations; to receive a great education that will prepare me for a future in engineering or biotechnology, and to play football for at the collegiate level, where I can use my abilities and talents to help further the success of the program, and where I can learn and grow as a leader on and off the field.  

Football has become an overwhelming passion for me.  I work hard everyday to better myself by hitting the weight room, cross training, and participating in track and field.  Unlike most, I haven't played football since my youth.  I played a couple years when I was younger, but my freshman year changed everything.  I knew this is what I wanted and continued to strive daily to attain the goals I have set forth for myself.  I am a quick learner, a smart learner, I am coachable and ready for new challenges that the collegiate level of play brings.  I study, just as hard as I play, practice and train, in the classroom averaging a 3.7 GPA.   I am excited and look forward to hearing from all schools and all divisions.  I look forward to hearing from you, my future coach.
