Always great to hear about an athlete whose head still fits in his helmet.
Incredible year! Absolutely incredible! Congrats young man. Bring on the college scouts.
WOW! This kid is the real deal. I can't wait to see him play in college. Good Luck Austin. Keep up the incredible work!
Was hoping lloyd would win it, but man that is impressive to win that as a sophomore absolutely amazing
Congrats all around! Quite an accomplishment!
I too was banking on Loyd from Timpview. Bet it was a tough decision to decide between the two-both well deserving. Both were the cream of the crop this year in a pool of great players. I figured Loyd because he was a Senior and Kafentsis is a shoe in the next two years. Will be fun to follow him.
The future looks bright for both Kaf. and the Jordan program.
Repeat?
We would love you at BYU
Congratulations Austin. Great accomplishment. Lou Holtz said. "Coaches have stopped recruiting the athletes because of tHe Parents". Lets hope the Dad will head head these words. He could be a concern for many great opportunities for Austin. I wish the best for him.
Use HS sports to unlock doors wont have after JHS.
1. Volunteer at hospital to get exposure to doctor work.
2. Socialize with stu at JHS or other who positive track record discovering segways into career interests.
Choose 3 career paths to work towards not 1.
Pilot- go learn ground school. 8 weeks $100. 597-7722
Doctor- volunteer at Hospital any way you can. Socialize. Stop when schedul conflict. Go back.
Coach- variety of sports. Bb, soccer. Develop instinct/keep condition.
Manager-maxout on math, math, math. Drop useless courses.
(Try exposure to Algerbra, Geometry, wow calculous) III. . .in HS.
Advanced- to Mall- get GMAT math and verbal book. (Kaplan, PR, manhattan GMAT). Each gives new strengths. Basics for SAT/ACT. Good exposure for HS students
Dont get too friendly with kids who are community/JHS problem. Hang with kids who are discovering/d about this. Essay writing basics good too.
From Tallahassee to you! Use capital you have now to unlock doors, volunteering, and career mates.
Whoelse is even talking about this stuff. . .
Come to BYU and show Jake Heaps what a dominating quarterback REALLY is!
Careful with BYU! Not sure they would know what to do with a QB like this.
What is Seminole talking about??? From an OLD Beetdigger, but a current Thunderbird. Thank goodness the DesNews was smarter than KSL Sports which honored Eddy Hall as the MVP of 4A after Timpview outlasted them in the state championship final. It was Lloyd, a drop-dead formidable defense, his great receivers and a dependable kicker that made the difference in the state championship game. Go Beetdiggers!! Go Thunderbirds for many years to come!
The Utah schools will not get him. Austin's sights are set on a national scale. USC would be a great place to set him up for a run at the NFL. It will be fun to watch this kid's career unfold before our eyes the next 5 years.
