Personal Statement
First and foremost my education is the most important goal to attain. Second, to play football at the collegiate level and achieving greatness is what I have inspired to do since first putting on a set of pads. What makes me a great candidate for any football team out there, is just like my education you can see in my academic profile. i am above the average student thus being in the gifted program since 1st grade. So in relationship to football, I approach everything I do at a max intense level. Above 100% if there such a percentage above 100. Though my character when you first meet me might not seem to be that of your above normal football player. I am reserve and tend to take in as much knowledge as i can to make me the best I can be. Not everyone likes being hit and thus its takes a rare beast to be a running back! I am that player/beast who you need on your football team!
