Over the course of four years at Wyoming, I’ve played three different positions. Wide receiver for two years, corner for one, and nickel safety my senior year. The biggest challenge with bouncing around like that is you never really get enough time to fully master any one position, especially when you’re competing against some of the best athletes in the world. Guys who are about to play in the NFL.
As we got closer to the end of the season, I set a personal goal to try and get on the field as much as possible, especially since I haven’t started a game since high school. Now yes, I have played an absurd amount of special teams, but there’s something different about being on the field for meaningful snaps compared to reps on punt or kickoff. That mattered to me a lot, and it’s something I’ve been chasing since middle school.
Weirdly enough, when I stopped focusing on my channel as much, I actually started playing better on the field. That’s been a really awkward balance for me to figure out over the past two years since starting this channel. Trying to chase football at the highest level while also wanting to show up consistently for you guys.
Just know that I am incredibly passionate about this channel. I think about it every single day, and I want to produce the best content possible for you guys. At the same time, I didn’t want to feel like I gave up on football too early by pursuing YouTube.
Now that the season has been over for a few weeks, I’ve been trying to figure out what the next few years of my life are going to look like. You guys are always at the forefront of my mind in every decision I make, and I’ll keep you updated as I work through this process.
Thank you for being patient with me. Your support truly means everything. I want to continue to grow with you guys and get to know you more along the way.
You can expect more content from me as we get into 2026. I don’t have an exact timeline yet. The transfer portal has been on my mind, and there’s still a lot I’m figuring out. But you guys deserve transparency about where my head is at.
As soon as I get established wherever I end up, you can expect a ton of consistency. I’m going all in. Just know it’s coming.
