Kaden McCarty '27 Recruiting Profile

Texas Tech University: Offered on March 18,2024, Freshman Year 

First Athletic Goal Completed: Freshman to Varsity before my first High School Game. My dream is to achieve a degree in Physical Therapy; while continuing a family tradition of giving back to the people that need my services--when it comes to healthcare. I come from a mom and dad that has taught me discipline, respect, accountability, proper judgment, caring, and sensitivity. So I can't and won't let their hard work and dedication be forgotten or dismissed.  

While focusing on my degree plan, I would love to fulfill my long-term dream of playing collegiate football and possibly basketball.  I love the game and all the life lessons that come with it.  I got into football at a very young age. And the sport became natural to me, not because it's easy, but more so due to the life lessons it teaches me: relationships, accountability,  respect,  discipline, and responsibility. All the things my dad has taught me. So the game made sense when you compare it to real life: problem-solving, teamwork (marriage), attention to detail, and living each day like it's the last.  Sports teach us life lessons. 

"You have to earn your starting position every rep and every practice; it's the coach's job every day to attempt to replace you."--Dad.
