So, in a way to better understand the use of Deep Dish Football for lllinois recruits and the whole entire IHSA Football scene. Decided to do player profiles of players who you might not know or you might know , but you should respect them for their roles on their respective teams. Every Football Player Has A Story To Tell
My sophomore season was a good year for getting more experience under my belt. As a transfer student it was very important to get used to the new system and also throwing to my new receivers that I will be playing with for the next few years.What does football mean to you?
Football has played a major role in my life. My dad is a former football player for Northwestern, so I grew up going to their games and looking up to all of those players. What was your favorite memory from last season?
My favorite memory was when I got my first varsity touchdown, against Carmi White County in the first round of playoffs.What do you feel is your strongest trait on the football field?
I think my strongest trait is my dual threat ability. I love to throw the ball deep but also enjoy scrambling out of the pocket and making a big run. What part of your game do you plan on working on in the offseason?
I have already been working on my throwing form with my quarterback trainer in Chesterfield Missouri. And I will soon start speed training to be ready for the various camps and combines I attend this spring and summer. What would you like college coaches to know about you?
I am a hard worker and constantly strive to get bigger, stronger, and faster. I have been fortunate enough to have friends and coaches that have played at the college level, and feel I have a good understanding of the hard work and commitment it takes to get there.
What goals do you have for yourself this upcoming season?
My main goal is to have a breakout season and help get the Knights back to the playoffs.How does Mater Dei look for the upcoming season?
We have an experienced offensive and defensive line returning and many players picked up a lot of varsity experience last year. We also have several younger guys that will be stepping up and contributing. What do you like about playing QB?
I like being the leader on the field, to me there is nothing better than completing a pass for a touchdown. Or when there is nothing open and you have to scramble to get the first down.
