Cole Stephens

My goals as a college football player are to compete at the highest level and help lead my team to championships. Being good has never been the standard for me, and average is not something I’m willing to accept. The objective is to become the kind of quarterback who can take a team from contender to champion by elevating everyone around him through preparation, toughness, and consistency. Earning the trust and respect of my teammates matters just as much as winning, and when they look back on their careers, I hope they remember me as the best teammate they ever had. Inspiring the next generation the way I was inspired growing up is important to me, along with representing my faith through how I work and how I treat people every day. At the end of my career, success to me will mean being known not only as a winning quarterback, but as someone who helped build something special and treated everyone with the same level of respect.
