Didn't that article say he has D1 offers for soccer too?



It says he is a "division 1 recruit"

I'm not sure that necessarily means that he has fielded any offers yet.

Drake may be the most athletic person I have ever seen in person. But I can assure you his soccer skills are way way way behind most high school soccer players. He will be able to go to any university he wants to for football. I highly doubt that is the case for soccer.

Very false. If he were a linebacker or defensive end, maybe. But the kid plays wideout. Way more intelligence and hand/eye coordination is required.

I remember being very mad because his first touch was bad as was his passing. but on top of that was some of the worst decision making ive ever seen.


These things can be taught and usually improve greatly with experience and exposure.
