Matthew Shaw '14 Recruiting Profile

My name is Matthew Shaw. I am 6 foot 3 inches tall.  I"m a relaxed person, drama is not in my vocabulary.  I stay away for bad habits and wrong  doings.  I work extremely hard for what I have and I earn every bit of what I have. I take more pride in what I have than most people.  I grew up in the woods in a small town were everybody knows everything about everyone so I try to display morals and character in all that I do.  My dream is to go to college and play football.  I love football and would love to make a career out it but if I can't then school is always ahead of it. I can use my brain more then my body in the long run anyway.  My dream is the NFL .  I mean what teenage boys dream is not being in the NFL. I come from a a football family.  We live, breathe, and sleep football. My grandfather played for LSU for 2 years then he was drafted by the army.  After returning, he played at Southeastern for 2 years and then being drafted by the GreenBay Packers in the late 50's. My father and all his brothers played high school ball with lots of state titles.  My father  played for Southeastern along with one of his brothers. My grandfather was also a coach for high school and college for 30 years, so needless  to say football is in my blood and I"m  glad to say I wish to carry on the legacy. I feel that I would be an asset to any football program and will work hard to achieve my goals.
