When I mean that when I say that , I mean don't worry about how you look on a social media , don't worry about um trying to impress like trying to be at all the Under Armour cares or how many stars you got cause the college coaches don't care about that . Care about how worried about how good you are at your sport , how athletic you are focus on your body , focus on eating , get bigger , be ready to go to college cause nowadays you have to be ready as soon as you get on campus . So if you focus on those things and you put yourself in every possible way to get into college coaches , eyes , you're gonna make it .
If you don't get extra , you're not gonna understand your playbook , you're not gonna understand , you're not gonna be sharp .

Like you , if you have to , more than know it , you have to like be able to recite off the top of your hand without looking at a piece of paper .

But the best um advice a mentor I ever gave me was probably to stay the course and just don't give up , like , just be confident in yourself and your ability or whatever it is because it can , it carries over to whatever sports you play . I thought football was a better fit for me when I just was realizing how slow my recruiter was going for basketball due to COVID and there's only 15 spots on a basketball roster .

So there's only so many spots for every high school guy and when more guys have more eligibility , that's less spots for the high school guys . And I really wanted to go dean and I knew I was athletic . So I knew that , you know , jumping and catching , uh catching a lob or I don't , was real similar to catching a touchdown or head top of somebody .
