Brady Echols '24 Recruiting Profile

I have been playing football since I was 5. Since I first stepped on the field, I have aspired to play at the collegiate level. On offense I am the starting offensive right tackle. On defense I  have significant playing time at defensive tackle. I am also the backup long snapper for  punts and field goals. I have strong run and pass blocking skills, soft and reliable hands, strong physical defense, and a high football IQ. I am a team leader and try to lead by example while also encouraging my teammates. I am very coachable and strive to be one of the hardest working players for any team I am a part of.

Off the field, I challenge myself in the classroom taking Honors level classes, study hard, and maintain a high GPA, presently at a 4.0. I also volunteer at my local recreational league coaching youth lacrosse athletes and volunteer at the local military veteran’s clubs. 

I want to attend a college where I can push myself in the classroom and on the football field. As a three sport varsity athlete in high school, I started and lettered my freshman year as a long pole defender on the lacrosse team  and earned a varsity letter as a freshman throwing the shot put and qualifying for the Virginia Regional Championships on the boy’s track and field team. I am open to all options and want to ultimately find the right college match at the highest level of competition possible. I hope to become a great role model to all peers and make my parents proud.
