Football and track run deep in my family. I have been playing football since I was ten years old. From the moment I stepped on the field, I fell in love with the game. Son of a former All-ACC/NFL Player | My goal is to play collegiate football and in the NFL.
Every day, I dedicate myself to improving as a player so I can be the best I can be and help my team succeed. Whether it is weight and speed training, focusing on nutrition, or preparing through practice and film study, I am committed to growing both on and off the field. I love the brotherhood football brings and thrive in team environments where everyone works together to achieve greatness.
Off the field, I believe success in the classroom is just as important as success on the field. My father played college football, was the ACC Rookie of the Year and a two-time All-ACC selection before signing with the Dallas Cowboys in 2002. My mother is an educator. From them, I have learned the importance of education and the dedication it takes to turn dreams into reality. I hope to be a positive role model to my peers and make my parents proud.
My grandfather, Robert “Bob” Arundell, is a Hall of Fame football coach from Hilton Head Island High School. My other grandfather, Theodore “Ted” Whitaker, is a Hall of Fame track coach in Hilton Head and across South Carolina, now coaching at Savannah State University. I continue to learn from their experience and leadership and am fully committed to developing as a student-athlete and competing at the highest level.
I am looking for a college where I can challenge myself both academically and athletically, and I am open to all opportunities. I would love the opportunity to discuss how I can contribute to your program and bring value to the team.
Thank you for your time and consideration.
