Colton Richardson '17 Recruiting Profile

    As a college athlete, I would like to go to a great academic and athletic program that not only cares about the athletes as players but also as humans. I want the program that I attend to want me to succeed not only on the field, but off of the field as well. My short term goals as college athlete are to not only be successful on the field but in the classroom. I want to be known for academics and also being a leader and inspiration to my teammates and the community. My long term goals would be to get a college degree in Sports Therapy.  I want to prepare myself for life after football by getting my college degree and not be thought of as just an athlete.

    I feel I would be a good fit for any team because I put the work in and go above and beyond. Also, I am a leader on and off the field.  I love my teammates and show them that I have confidence in them.  For example, after every game if my lineman do not allow a sack I have them come over to my house the next morning and I make them breakfast for their hard work. Before and after every game I always get the skilled position players to come to my house and watch film from the previous game we played and also the upcoming game. Preparing is key.  Any team that is recruiting me will find out that no other player will work harder, be more prepared and strive for greatness than I will.
