hat have you been doing as of late with off-season workouts?

What do you feel you have improved on most since last football season?
“My hands have improved greatly.”
How do you feel your team will do next football season?
“We are going to have a great season! All the work that our team has been putting in during the off-season is really going to show on the field.”
What team do you feel will be the toughest competition on your schedule?
“Every team on our schedule is going to bring their best against us, but we hold ourselves to a high standard and aim to be the best. So there isn’t one specific team I’m focused on—we treat every opponent seriously.”
Who is the toughest individual player your team will face off against?
“See above.”
Do you want to play sports in college? If so, which one?
“Absolutely. I would love an opportunity to play at the next level. That’s the plan.”
What colleges have been recruiting you?
“I haven’t been officially recruited yet, but I’m working hard to get on the radar. I’ve been focused on improving, getting my film out there, and reaching out to schools I’m interested in.”
What school is recruiting you the hardest?
“N/A.”
Have you made any college trips yet?
“I’ve made a few college trips so far—I’ve been to some combines and visited places like the University of Colorado and the University of Nebraska. I’m hoping to get out to more schools soon, like the University of Oregon, Brown, UCLA, etc… There are a lot of schools I’d love to see—it’s just a challenge getting to all of them.”
Do you have plans for more trips soon?
“N/A.”
What camps are you planning to do this summer?
“N/A.”
Did you have a favorite college growing up?
“Growing up, I didn’t have one specific favorite college. My mom went to the University of Colorado, so I heard a lot about that school, and my grandpa was from Nebraska, so the University of Nebraska was also familiar to me. But overall, I didn’t grow up with a strong preference for any one school.”
