Joe McGough '21 Recruiting Profile

Hello,

I love the game of football and have since I can remember.  My dad tells me that my favorite toy as a child was a ball and always had it in my hand.  I started playing football at age 8, after several years of playing soccer.  I fell in love with the game, the friendships, the work, and the feeling of accomplishment.  There is nothing like being a part of a team and having your hand in the pile.  I love every aspect of the game from the first practice to the last minute of the last game of the season.  My work ethic is one that found myself in the gym the following Monday after the season ended this past year.  I'm working on improving my hand speed and first step to help make my game better.  I very much want to play at the next level and look forward to having the opportunity.

My parents have been a steady and supportive force for me throughout my life.  The foundation at home is solid and the encouragement that I get form them daily is unwavering.  I'm really open to where I play at the next level and am excited about the opportunities that lay ahead of me.  I appreciate you reading this statement and do hope that you find me as a fit for your program.
