What is Youth Athlete of the Year?
Learn MoreHe loves hanging out with his teammates most of all. The brotherhood he is developing with “his guys”. He also loves the fact he gets to hit people.
He is inspired by his uncle who played college football. He will sit and watch his old game tapes daily, asking questions about this move or technique and the why’s of who he blocked on particular plays. I’ve watched those games play by play everyday since practice started.
After his first day of practice, he got in the car sore and beat up, dragging because he was tired. I asked him how he liked it, he turned to me and says, dad I can’t wait for tomorrow. Since then he is rushing me to get to practice so he hit the tackling dummy before practice.
