What gives you an advantage over other athletes at your position?
The way that my brain is able to comprehend football. I am able to read the field like I’m reading a diagram. I understand the position of the entire O Line, which benefits me by helping me understand why my position is very imperative in the art of football. I am able to fight through whatever adversity come my way as I have proven on and off the field.
What does being a student of a game mean to you?
Being a student of the game is to me is honestly the same as being a student in school. For me football is a subject. My favorite subject.
How does being a Center reflect itself in your personal life?
I’ve worked security jobs at bars/ clubs and thrived in that atmosphere since I was 15. I’m a protector. The center protects the quarterback which in turn protects the program. Thats my job I was born to protect. As I plan to do with my family off the field.
How would you describe your work ethic?
My work ethic is probably the best. I am very competitive and me work ethic feeds off it. I am constantly trying to figure out ways to get better. I always feel like someone somewhere are trying to outwork me. I understand I have to work twice as hard because of my circumstances.
What would you consider to be your biggest accomplishment in your sports career so far?
After my 2021-22 season I was ranked on PFF the number one run blocker in the FCS. The next season I got hurt the second game one the season with an injury that I lot of people don’t come back from. My daughter Trinity Luckett was born on June 26th of 2023. I was able to maintain being a supportive dad, while managing my college classes and a tough football schedule. I take pride in being a great father. Im going to be father of the year. On top of that I was also able to recover completely from a jeopardizing injury. I came, I conquered, and I survived. I am a nominee for the Conerly award. I proved to be one of the top players in the state of Mississippi after a devastating injury. I proved that I am meant to be here.
