I play football linebacker . I say coming into football , I had a lot of mentors especially I say in middle school and high school . So one of my mentors with coach Drew , that was my kind of my first real football coach .
I say coming into football , I had a lot of mentors especially I say in middle school and high school . So one of my mentors with coach Drew , that was my kind of my first real football coach . So that was a little in little League .
So it wasn't , I feel like it wasn't , it was a , a big change but it wasn't too bad cause the guys that I had around me that kind of helped guide me into what I needed to do and where I had to be up , I say for sure , like just for one being a great leader of the field . So kind of little guys up and the freshman that is coming in , freshmen are all the guys just giving guys words of encouragement and letting them know where they're wrong and how to fix it . So I feel like that's a big part of it .
Um It was kinda weird for me because once all of the culture started coming in , I started talking to coach , started getting office , then COVID hit around that time , like around the time where I was about to commit and looking at where I really want to be . So I would say the in-person um means that I have with coaches , I feel like the most important thing with that is just be yourself cause that's the only way you will really find your real home because if you're not yourself and you're acting like you're someone and then you get there and you're a completely different person that'll kind of throw the coaches off and throw your relationship off with the coaches . So I'll just say always be yourself and being recruited .
And then later in the years , we brought in some more coaches , coach Brown coach Talley that taught me a lot of the fundamental stuff cause they coached a lot of college , a co a lot of college guys . So just having them around , they showed me like the things that I should be doing and things that I shouldn't be doing on the field and off the field . And then I had a trainer .
