Jacob Kelley '18 Recruiting Profile

My collegiate goals are to play at the highest levels of College Football, while earning a Bachelors Degree in Criminal Justice. I want to eventually have a chance to play professional football and then go on to a career in Federal Law Enforcement. 

First and foremost I really want coaches to know that I am an extremely hard working player.  I push myself to outwork everyone,  without exception. This includes being dedicated to a demanding, year round personal training program in addition to running track, and all football team related activities.  

I am very coachable and carry a positive attitude at all times. Both coaches and teachers recognize me a positive role model for other students and athletes.  I also take academics seriously and work to improve in the classroom on a daily basis. 

On the football field, I just finished my first year as running back after playing defense my whole life.  I ended up leading the team in yards (1000+) and touchdowns (12).  My coaches recognized me with an individual year end award for the player who most demonstrates toughness on the team. One of only four awards for a team of over 80 kids.  

Over the last year, I have made enormous improvements as a football player.  I know this is directly due to hard work, and that drives me to work even harder.  This off season,  I plan to outwork everyone, everyday without exception. My goals are set extremely high. I intend to reach them. I am on a mission and I'm just getting started.
