I believe I have the skills and mindset to be competitive on the collegiate level for these reasons: I firmly believe in the phrase "if you are fifteen minutes early, you are on time." I hold myself and many of my teammates accountable to be on time and ready to perform at our best. In addition, I believe, working hard in the weight room and film room will help me be the best I can be on the gridiron. Grades are very important to me as well, I hold myself accountable for everything that happens in the classroom. When I work hard in class, it shows on the field. I have never had an issue with any teacher I have ever had and I treat them with respect and always remember that they are there to teach me and better me at the given subject. I believe I have a crucial puzzle piece to making a great football player, I have tremendous heart and motivation. Every time I step on the turf, I say a prayer and tell myself I have to make everything happen, offers and a starting position don't just fall in someone's lap, you need to work.! These are just a few reasons why I believe I have the potential to play on a college football team. Thank you for taking the time to read this~ JARETT SIMON
