Javier Rogers '16 Recruiting Profile

I have a burning passion and desire to play basketball at the next level, it's not everyday that we can wake up and say that we were able to play the game we love. I aspire to be the guy on the team that my teammates look up to, not only on the court but in the classroom as well. Be an example to my teammates, to push them academically and in the game of basketball. Age happens, and soon enough it'll all just be a memory. So I want to make the most of my time while I still have a chance. I may not be the tallest, or the strongest, but I'll be the one with the most heart! I'll do the dirty work for the team, the one who goes unnoticed, while my teammates get praised, I don't mind. I work hard everyday, commitmed to getting better, to be consist, to be mentally tough, to setting the right atmosphere on and off the court. First, I have to continue to be studious in the classroom if I want to play at the next level. I want to be academically and fundamentally sound at the college level.
