Personal Statement
My name is Darryl Jackson and I bring a lot of energy and a positive attitude to my school's football team. I know football very well considering I have been playing since I was about 6 years old. My goal every time I step on the field is to do my best and go 110% and be a person that helps my team. Over the many years I’ve been playing football, my favorite highlights have been any great block I've made on a play that led to a touchdown or any impressive play in terms of yardage. Also any pancake blocks I make are the absolute best. After many years of playing and traveling for football, I’ve learned how to adjust to teams playing styles, environments, and coaches expectations.
I am very open-minded when it comes to choosing a college. It doesn’t matter the size or location, but the important thing for me is to feel safe in the area and a college with a lot of school spirit. I am looking for a school with a good academic program. My goal is to graduate with a degree in economics and or business. My athletic goal is to keep playing football at a high level and possibly go to the next level also continue to grow as a player on and off the field. I believe I can make a positive impact both physically and mentally on a team.
