Thanjhae Teasley '17 Recruiting Profile

My collegiate goals and aspirations are that when I get to the college level is to help make your team better. What makes me a good candidate is my mindset and skill-set always grows everyday, and I feel like I get better after every game I play because I take criticism in a positive way and it makes me work harder to fix my past mistakes. What makes me different from other recruits is I am a person who developed the mentality to never give up no matter what the circumstances are. I train every single day even after a long gruesome practices just to get faster stronger and more hand-eye coordinated. Also I would love to give my mother the life she never had growing up  since she sacrificed everything she had just for us to survive. Even when we were homeless and on the streets she found a way for us to eat and now finally get us a roof over our heads, and pay her back for giving me clothes on my back and motivation to be the best for her. There are many more things to explain but it would be better to explain in person so I can look the coach in his eyes to truly understand my aspirations in life and determination.
