You know, what you just mentioned wasn't happening for Black quarterbacks either, you know, as far as going to D1 schools. But having an idol like Charlie Ward right down the street in Thomasville and seeing him go on the Florida State to win a national championship and to win a Heisman was everything to me. You got to think that was my freshman, sophomore, junior season in high school.

And I was watching him. And then Damian Craig started to make some noise at Auburn. And ironically, those were the first two or three schools I started looking at. was Auburn, was Florida State. And then I, you know, ended up settling with Georgia Tech. Not settling, I'm sorry, no disrespect, because they had a really good program at the time. Which, you want to get into that anyway.

Yeah. But yeah, you know, those are the guys I looked up to. Those are the guys that were running, throwing the ball, being in multiple facet formations and really, you know, been able to show every aspect of their game.

Yeah, that was a pretty cool experience. You know, first, it all started with me at Gresham Park and playing, you know, alongside the likes of the Travis Strouds of the world and some other great players, you know, to play it along with. And so that's where my, you know, competitive baseball started at. You know, I ended up getting selected to play for the East Cobb Astros at the age of 13.

And we took the opportunity, you know, at the time. East Cobb, which is, you know, well, really pretty nationally well-known, only had one, you know, team out the whole state for each age group. So we took advantage of that opportunity. So from 13 to 17, you know, I played a lot of travel ball, played about, shoot, 80 to 100 games a summer.

I had a really, really good coach at Southwest DeKalb, too, Coach Pruitt, who helped start, you know, the read-in program before Coach Goodwin later took it along And then the really winning region championships and the whole nine over there in the state championship at Redan.

But yeah, so with me getting so much experience during the summertime and my game really taking off, you know, a lot of scouts start, you know, buzzing around Southwestern Cab, you know, during the spring of my senior season.
