RE: (S25) - PT 3 - Early Decisions - J0EB - 10-25-2020
I chose to go to Arizona State University because as a kid growing up in Arizona, I really looked up to them. For starters, my Mom went to ASU where she double majored in Sports Journalism and Photography. Whenever we'd talk about college she had such great stories to tell of her experience and the opportunities she had, so it really got me interested in going to ASU early on. I watched their football games and went to them as much as possible with my Mom and Dad, finding the time to go was often difficult though. I was not highly recruited at all. Since I only started playing football in High School my Junior year, I didn't really have the experience that a lot of guys have. I had a few schools reach out to me but they were mostly smaller one's outside of the major conferences. I still have every recruitment letter to this day though, those teams saw the potential within me and decided to take a chance by reaching out, that really means a lot to me. Alternatively they might've just desperately needed players, but I like to think it's the former haha. I was a walk on at ASU and hardly played my first year, only 4 games scattered through the year. They knew I was young and needed development in my football skills themselves before I'd be ready to seriously and consistently take the field. After that first season though I got my opportunity as a starter and really made it count. Played 3 more great years on the team and enjoyed every moment.

Doug Howlett of the Baltimore Hawks, previously of the Tijuana Luchadores, didn't go to college to play American Football. Instead he played rugby back in the day for the university of Auckland and this would have been prior to his age-reconstruction surgery. This would have been a time that was a potentially twenty one and a half years ago and was before Doug Howlett went and played professional rugby for the largest and most successful rugby organisations, the All Blacks. Doug Howlett finished his career in Munster before deciding to undergo the surgery to pursue a passion of his from when he was young, to play American Football. In order to do this successfully he decided to skip college and play in the minor leagues for the Tijuana Luchadores as a means to get his bearings in check before going into the majors. Needless to say, Howlett went on to have a great career for the Tijuana Luchadores, holding league leader in yards for two consecutive seasons and having the second only recorded back to back 1,000 yard seasons in DSFL history. Howlett went on to win Wide Receiver of the year in S24 and is having a firecracker start to his career in the ISFL.

Yeboah wasn’t highly recruited out of high school. He played QB/DB for the football team and was made team captain his sophomore year. He played the majority of his DB snaps at strong safety gaining a reputation as a relentless tackling machine due to his high motor and hard hitting style. Rivals.com named him a 3 star recruit at QB and DB. He fielded few D1 offers due to playing at a small high school program. The highest profile offer he received was from Penn State to play exclusively at safety as they felt he would be better suited to being a safety and they already had better options at QB. Although Yeboah wanted to play QB he decided to accept the offer as he felt playing at Penn State gave himself the best chance of being drafted to the big league so he headed off to Penn State.
Going into his freshman year he wasn't a starter but he was stated to be a big part of the rotation. Due to a injury Tony was pushed into a starting role where he started to gain national recognition due to his old school, hard hitting style. In his first few starts he had several highlight hits which trended on social media and led to him being given his nickname "The Assassin". Penn State went 11-2 during the regular season and they finished the season ranked 7th in the country which led them to a Rose Bowl berth against USC which they lost 52-49.

Fortunately for the young Prince Vegeta, he never had to undergo any major schooling due to his Saiyan background. Vegeta was born of royal blood and was a proud Saiyan, a race of outer space warriors to put it simply. All he was taught to do was how to fight and he did that extremely well. Vegeta would often visit other planets just to destroy them for fun, for money and although not very often, sometimes he would do it because he viewed them as a threat to his race. Unfortunately due to all of his fighting and long battles, Prince Vegeta never really had to undergo schooling like most people on this planet (With High School and Colleges and whatnot) and as a result was never really as polished as his peers in the NCAA for his single season. Due to his raw athletic ability and his strength, Vegeta was highly touted entering the NCAA atmosphere for a single season and was recruited by most of the top schools in the country, he ended up joining the UCLA Bruins for a season where he pretty much showed the entire nation why he should be highly touted entering the DSFL by leading the nation in tackles while having multiple interceptions and having a gaudy number of pass deflections. Overall he was a raw player but prospects all over saw how hard he was working night in and night out to improve and it eventually paid dividends at the NSFL/ISFL level.

Big Slammu was the talk of the town of Jackson. There was a lot of debate at his highschool Jackson Hole if he should be allowed to play. He was a 3rd string LB and defensive lineman during his sophomore and junior year. Of course, the story goes that he at some point before his senior year, he was given powers to become a half shark. This of course made him balloon from a 150 pound nobody to a 260 pound LB who became the best player in Wyoming. Due to his absolutely amazing senior year, he became a top target for colleges, especially at Wyoming. But he decided to not play college and go straight to the DSFL. This was a decision purely because he believed that the archaic NCAA rules would lead to him being banned from the NCAA in his half shark form. This would be a career killer because in his natural form, he never became much larger than his 150 pound frame. Another benefit of his transformation was of course, far faster speed, ferocity, strength etc. He became a football menace in his shark form, and needed no extra development after his senior year to become a legitimate pro player. The pros are also lax in a way the NCAA isn’t, with a large variety of players being accepted, including polar bears, woman, etc.
