Jahkaris Johnson '24 Recruiting Profile

I play hard and grind all day everyday. I am determined to be something. I have the grades and I have the motivation. I'm always a Leader and never a follower.

Ever since I was little football was in my blood.  When I started I was always playing 1 or 2 age divisions above the division I was supposed to be in. I knew since then that I wanted to play at the college level.  Along with football I also have aspirations to study and have a major in Legal studies and eventually apply to Law Schools.  

When I was born, the routine was to watch Hurricane games every weekend. When I think of having fun, I think of football. Never missing a game, getting tougher and tougher with my father before the season starts.  Even as far back as when I was only 3 years old. My dad handed me me my first football.  As I sat there, curious, I ran at my dad only to hit him a fall back down. Since that day I've made it my mission to never be put on the ground again.

I came to love the game just as much as my father does.  Not only for the sport but also for all the life lessons it teaches you.  As well as a way to  build character.  Out on the field, you are not only strengthening your body, but also your mind. There are so many examples of this. Here are  a few; Perseverance, determination, discipline, resilience and hard work. The list goes on and on.  

That next step is a college education and degree along with college football experiences.   I am extremely interested in attending your school and being on your team.  I am a very dedicated and hard working individual that does not give up until I reach my goal.  I will not stray from my path and objectives.  I feel I can be a valuable addition to your team as a leader and as a good example to follow. 

I am 5'10.11" - 230lbs, Class of 2024 Middle Linebacker from Lake Region High school.  I have a 3.8 GPA.  As previously stated my educational goals are to earn a college degree in legal studies, and later apply to law schools.  My goals and aspirations for athletics are to play at the next level at the best possible school for me.
