Tyler Thermezi '26 Recruiting Profile

Born and raised in South Florida, I’ve witnessed a few greats rise from my hometown of Broward County—and I aspire to follow in their footsteps. My ultimate goal is not only to become a standout college football player but to graduate with a degree and one day earn a Ph.D. in Education from a prestigious university.

Football is a passion, but I know it's not guaranteed. What is guaranteed is my commitment to academics and using education to build a future. I’m determined to reach the next level—with a degree in hand.

What sets me apart as a candidate for a college team is my leadership and drive to inspire others. I push my teammates to go beyond what’s expected because I genuinely want to see them succeed alongside me. On the field, I bring a unique skill set to the wide receiver position. I can recognize defensive backs’ blind spots that others miss and execute routes with precision and speed that separates me from the competition.

I am coachable, humble, and driven. I don’t boast—I let my game speak for itself. I simply love football, and I believe it comes naturally to me.

Academically, I’ve faced challenges—especially after the loss of my grandfather and grandmother. Their passing knocked me off course, but I’ve found the strength to pick myself back up. I’m working every day to improve not just as an athlete, but as a student. I’m focused, motivated, and ready to put in the work to succeed in both arenas.
