Yesterday was a very hard end to the year I lost my grandfather my “pop” who truly made me the man I am today! He will always be my biggest fan in the stands! Thank you for all the love, life lessons and your service to your country! I love you pop!
PSA: 2021’s your goal should be to find the best school in the country that fits you academically first. Then football program, coaches, facilities among other things! This process shouldn’t be about how many “Offers” you can collect! Be Smart!
I greatly appreciate the opportunity to talk about how

PWO stands = Transfer Portal. Don’t make one of the biggest decisions in your life based on level or perception of others! Your choice should solely be based on what education/staff will help you to be the person you truly want to be and help propel you to sucess!
