Rodney Mills '24 Recruiting Profile

Since I was a young boy I have always had a love for animals and nature. I've been an avid lover of all types of fauna especially, extinct species such as dinosaurs, since I was about three years old. I have retained this passion for learning about our planet and it's inhabitants since then. 

Therefore, my collegiate goals would entail furthering my scientific studies in either marine biology or animal science, with the aspiration of graduating and embarking on a career as a Marine or Evolutionary biologist, Veterinarian, or Zoologist. I am also an avid lover of history and have also studied history since I was about 10 years old. In my youth, I also found another passion...football. 

What makes me a good candidate for any team is that; I began playing football at about 3 years old. At that time, my family and I lived in Georgia. Due to my height, I often had to play with kids older than me. Over the years I found I had a passion for football, and around my third year I began to truly dominate on the field. Ever since then, I have continued to play football. Last season made my 13th season. 

What makes me different from other recruits in character, athletics and academics is that; I have ALWAYS aspired to play college football. I always craved the bright lights and team pride that goes along with playing college football. I have always been a high production player that doesn't crack under pressure. I am always very coachable. I have no issue with tough coaching. I am willing to do whatever is asked of me on the field. I am also very versatile as I have played most positions on the field. I would love nothing more than to be able to play college ball while also pursuing my life's dream to become a scientist.
