Jordan Markowski '17 Recruiting Profile

Senior Captain Jo...Junior Year Corne...Personal Statement
My name is Jordan Markowski and I am in my senior year at Fort Mill High School in South Carolina. Thank you for taking the time to learn more about me and my collegiate goals and aspirations. If you are looking for a student athlete that will pursue a quality education and get his degree, I can promise you, it will be completed. If you are looking for an athlete that will compete with the desire to make others around him better, then you will see one of the most passionate, undersized athletes you could ask for. If you are looking for someone with character, I have never consumed an alcoholic beverage, smoked a cigarette, nor would I ever do anything to disrespect my family or the University. I don't cheat!
I love the lessons football teaches me and my teammates. We are all going to get knocked down in our lives, but football players, we are taught, never stay down! My father has coached high school football longer than I can remember. I am the son of a coach. My ultimate goal, after completing my degree, would be to have the opportunity to participate as a Graduate Assistant Football Coach, or join the Navy Seals. I want to take part in chasing that dream, because regardless of the outcome, I would have my degree in Business to fall back on.
Finally, when I was 2 yrs. old, the late Grambling State University Head Coach, Eddie Robinson, once wrote me on a piece of paper. He wrote, "Jordan, you can have anything you want in life, if you're willing to pay the price." "Are you willing to pay the price?" The answer is easy. I've been paying it for the last 16 years. I know he's proud!
