Micah Talapatra '23 Recruiting Profile

More than just choosing a school for football, I have always lived around an education based family and value my academics greatly. My ultimate goal is to be able to play the sport I love at the next level, while being able to grow more as a man and be able to set myself up for life after college as well.

 I transferred once in my high school career and adapted and became a starter within a few weeks of transferring. I love to be vocal and use my voice for leadership to motivate and hype up my teammates, and one of my biggest memories from football was coming off the field with my quarterback after a bad ball on 4th down. When I looked over at him and saw him looking down shaking his head, I immediately went over to him and pushed his head up and grabbed his helmet and told him that we needed him and that I had full faith he could lead this team. 

Football has always been a great way to get away from everything going on and I love being able to come to the field or weight room every day and put in work and help my teammates get better as well.
