Ricardo Gutierrez '15 Recruiting Profile

My name is Ricardo "Ivan" Gutierrez, I am very passionate about playing football.  I've been playing since I was 6 years old and ever since I have always had a dream of playing in middle school, high school, college, and eventually the NFL.  I would love to go to college and play football because not only is it my dream to play at the next level, it would also give me a great opportunity to earn my degree and get my education. Ever since I realized that playing in college was possible I have done my best to keep my grades up. As of right now I have a 3.9 GPA and after this semester I am projected to have a 4.0 going into my senior year. Everyone that I have ever talked to have drilled one thing into my head .. GRADES. The one thing I have always remembered is that a coach can help you learn your position in football but they can not teach you to have good grades. I think that with my great work ethic and my determination that I will be a great teammate to which ever school I go to, and I will reach my goal of playing in college and my dreams will come true.
