Clayton Weldon '23 Recruiting Profile

I have been playing football since 2nd grade and I am sure you have heard before, it is such a huge part of my life. On the field, I have great field vision and I am great at filling gaps. I like to and am willing to help my teammates in any way possible and help them get in the right field position and make ensure we do our assignments the correct way with a "things can turn on a dime" mentality.  I currently love hitting the most on the field because it helped the teams confidence and mine to get the game rolling the right direction. Off of the field, I have been referenced as the guy people ask for help in class, outside of class and always willing to help in any way possible.  It makes me feel more fulfilled when people ask for my help by explaining in a way they would understand it better. I am a multi-sport athlete and I am coached by multiple guys. I can take coaching by anyone, hard coaching, little softer coaching and easy coaching. I thrive under the firm coaches better. I am very invested in the weight room, one of my favorite places on the campus. I enjoy lifting like it’s a part of life. I deadlift 450, squat 335, power-clean 275 and benched up to 265 but am currently improving those stats.  My work ethic is very different from others. I work every weekend and on weekdays for a large inflatable event company which means working with units weighing up to 650 lbs. on a daily basis. We are in the gym for 2 hours out side of school. I am very serious about college football and want pursue a career in sports even if it’s eventually coaching. As a maturing young adult, I have learned to work hard in the class room. I went from a 2.3 gpa to a 2.7 gpa this year so far and it’s steadily rising. 

Look forward to working with you.
