Charlie was asked some questions and this is what he had to say.

What made you want to play football?

“I remember always watching football on Saturdays with my family and seeing the packed stands and the tailgating going on hours before the game started. It showed me how much it meant to people and I always knew I wanted to be apart of something like that.”

What makes you stand out from other players?

”I would say my drive to get better everyday. Never being satisfied.”

Who do you look up to and why?

”Lane Johnson. The way he studies his opponents and is always looking for ways to get the upper hand is what I try and mirror in my game.”

What is something you want college coaches to know about you?

”That I love working to improve and being the best man and player that I can be.”

What are your goals for the upcoming season?

”A personal goal would be becoming a better athlete and becoming more explosive and quicker off the ball. As a team a goal would be to go undefeated in district, and making another run for a chance to play at the “Superdome.”
