Ben Onett '12 Recruiting Profile

I have respectfully decommitted and Rescind offer from Temple. Temple is changing their offense to a Run dominate system and still holds the commitment however they have given me permission to see if there is a school that wants a Duel style or Pro Style QB that can provide more of a balanced approach.   I learn new offenses very quickly, reading hand signals and making split decisions at the line as the defense adjusts.  If a school needs  a very confident QB  I look forward to speaking with you.

I've been playing sports my entire life. I started playing football and basketball in third grade, I've always played on teams where my teammates were two or three years older and have started on every team that I have played on. I can remember playing in the front yard, I always had a football in my hand, pretending I just scored the winning touchdown, hearing the crowd chant my name! Each year I have been either a captain or a successful leader. My philosophy has always been to outwork the competition. I believe that it is most important to lead by example because "talk is cheap". I feel a sense of accomplishment when the team truly plays as a whole. It is awesome when I am in the huddle focusing the guys and seeing their conviction intensify. I love guiding them to a common goal of doing our jobs and winning. I would describe myself as a very quick minded tough player who can make the best out of every play even when it breaks down. I believe what makes me different from my peers is that I prepare and work harder than my competition and never rest on any past success...ever! It has been my goal to play football in college as long as I can remember. I plan on visiting 5-6 schools this summer. I have absolute confidence in my ability to meet the challenges of life on and off the field. In college I would like to study marketing/advertising, and philosophy. I am not looking for any specific region just mainly a school that appeals to me, is very serious about winning (as I am) and the student body provides a welcoming friendly atmosphere. I would like you to look at my links/press page and view a few examples of recent evaluations and recent pictures of myself. If you google QB Scout you can view older clips of my play.
