Ahmad King '28 Recruiting Profile

I've always dreamed of playing division 1 college football and winning an NCAA championship. From the age of 5 when I first began playing football all I have ever thought about was playing on the biggest stages when it comes to football. I recently completed my Freshman year of football at Mater Dei High School and we finished 13-0 and won the State Title and National Title. Voted #1 Unanimously by ESPN, Maxx Preps and all other Nationally recognized Voting Polls. Next year I will be a Sophomore at Mater Dei High School (Class of 2028) Last year I was the starting RB on JV as a Freshman last year and was blessed to play in a few regular season Varsity games and some playoff games. My goal this season is to compete with a couple of upper classman to become a starter or at least to be in heavy rotation. Before being recruited by Mater Dei, I played in the US army bowl, a tournament for 6th 7th and 8th grade All Star players from all over the country. I was a member of the Southern California 8th grade All-Star team and we finish 4-0. We won big against the other states' all-star football teams. We played against teams such as Texas, Utah, Washington and Georgia. We defeated the Texas All-Star team in the Dallas Cowboys practice stadium for the championship. This was such a great experience and further confirms my dreams of one day playing at a high level. My dad played football in College and 2 years in the CFL in the early 90’s and has coached me since I first started playing. My uncle Todd McNair played 9 years in the NFL with the KC Chiefs and Houston Oilers. I hope to one day follow in their footsteps and to be drafted and play pro football in the NFL. In the past, I have been called humble, respectful, and a silent leader by coaches and teachers. I consider myself to be hard working and a leader on and off the Football field. I have always been a 3.5 and above GPA student; I currently have a 3.7 at Mater Dei. I will continue to work hard and showcase what I can do on and off of the football field.
