Braden Cook '20 Recruiting Profile

I feel I’m a good candidate that can help your team do great things.  One reason is I’m not afraid to work. I went to Mexico on a mission’s trip and built a house for a family in need.  Even though I couldn’t understand what they were saying, seeing them and the conditions they lived in taught me to appreciate what I have and that I have a responsibility to help others where I can.  My father was in the Navy for 20 years and was deployed several times.  Being the oldest of three boys I had to step up and become a leader in my house and help my mom with my brothers. While training at D-1, I know I can learn so much from the coaches and other players there.  I am determined to excel at what there teaching me so I will ask questions and if I don’t understand how to do it I will go home and practice it until I understand it and know it backwards and forwards.  I help coach my brothers Flag football team and could someday see myself coaching for a high school or even a college.  I believe that God has a plan for me and that plan includes playing collegiate football.
