Personal Statement
I'm 6'4, 300, All district Offensive tackle, and Defensive tackle. 405 lb bench, 570 lb squat, 585 lb deadlift. My 40 time is 5.2 and slowly increasing, soon I'll be in the 4's. I have 5 years of football behind me, and this is Senior year. The year I get to leave everything out on the high school playing field for good, hoping that a recruiter that is interested will help me achieve my college dream, which is, 'no matter what happens, I will do anything to compete in college football" that is my dream. I strive everyday to get better. I push myself harder then I know I can go, so I'll achieve more and more, I am the first one on the field, and its very true that I'm the last one off. I usually stay behind and talk with my coaches or get more instruction in things that I'm lacking in on the offensive and defensive side. I want to go play college no matter where it is, but I've been thinking of M.S.U and T.S.U, but that school that is been on my mind the most is, somewhere were I can acheive what I want to do, and most of all, I can play my favorite sport there, football. I'm open to mostly all schools, I just want to live my athletic dream and get my degree. If I were to move onto the pro's after, I would take it within a heart beat. But At this moment I'm taking it one by one, college first. I would most likely say that my family needs financial help, I'm one of the first three in my family to want to make it to college, and only on of the other two are still there. We aren't the richest of families, I admit that. But I believe that you dont have to be rich to get were you want in life, some of the greatest football players were from poor families growing up. I haven't quite narrowed my search for exactly what I want to do yet, but I almost have. My goals are to play in college and get a college education, simple as that. I don't want to end my football experience in high school, I love it way to much. I've never given up on anything in my life, I'm not about to start. Thank you for you time. John McGuire.
