Brian Gibbs '17 Recruiting Profile

I have been playing football since I was 5 years old. The hardest part of making this account has been trying to convert all of my passion and fire for the game and life into a brief paragraph.  Next to God, my family, and school, football is  the most important thing in the world to me.  What separates me from the other student athletes in my class is the drive to be great both on and off the field. I worked harder than I ever had in my entire life both in the weight room and classroom.  I was embarrassed with the low grades I  had received in my first 3 years of high school.  I am continuing to strive to improve my GPA.  I saw not to take those low grades as a loss, but as a lesson.  They taught me that things in this world are earned, never given. Thus, I am now working very hard to earn grades that show my true academic abilities.  My dream is to play collegiate football at a school that offers a quality education and one at which I feel truly at home.  I aspire to become the best student, person, and football player I can be from now to my college graduation.  My current challenge is discovering which college will be a part of my journey.
