What makes you stand out as a future collegiate athlete?

I stand out as a future collegiate athlete because I am a great student athlete. I plan to be a college athlete as well as a college graduate. Not only am I great on the field I’m also great in school standing at a 3.4 GPA. I love football it motivates and pushes me to be the best that I can be.

Always had a good feeling about Tell, heading into his junior year he showed a lot of promise with little varsity reps, but you could tell he was hungry for a big season. Tell has a great knack at finding creases and slipping into the backfield. He is growing into his body, added some good weight over the last year and is now at 270, which is 20 lbs more than this time a year ago. He has the type of frame that should continue to add weight too, and I can see him near 290-300 by the time he is in college. Tell’s recruitment really took off this offseason, and D1 programs have been all about the feisty interior defender. Tell is very physical at the point of attack, probably his best skill is his ability to jump the snap, you see consistently him getting into the backfield. Needs to get stronger in the lower body, Tell has a crazy high motor, and his legs churn out a good push into the backfield, but lower body strength is certainly an area of focus. Tell uses his hands well to get around blocks, has a more advanced swim move for a high schooler, and does a nice job of closing out the A gap.
