Personal Statement

Football is a passion of mine and something I truly love. I am used to being the underdog and having people doubt me. I didn’t hit my big growth spurt until after my freshman season. As a result, I was under the radar for a long time and didn’t get my opportunities until later. So I’ve always had a chip on my shoulder and felt like I have something to prove. And I still feel that way! 

I am the complete opposite of “entitled.” Everything I’ve achieved, I’ve had to earn. This is something for which I’m grateful as it has prepared me to embrace competition at the highest level. I elevate those around me. I lead by example with my work ethic and positive attitude. But where I separate myself as a quarterback is with my film study and mental preparation. 

I am just looking for an opportunity to compete and prove myself at the next level. Wherever that opportunity comes and whatever form it comes in, I’m going to take advantage of it. I believe my ceiling is high. Everything that I’ve accomplished so far is just scratching the surface of what I’m capable of. 

After my playing days are complete, I want to ultimately become a head coach or coordinator at a major FBS school.
