What the Coaches Say
“Nolan is a really good football player; he has great size and speed to play the Safety position. He sacrificed playing his true position which is Safety to help his team WIN. Great young man and very physical! When Nolan gets the opportunity to play Safety in High School or College, it’s not going to take long for him to shine. His presence will intimidate WR’s, TE’s, and RB’s...” - Coach Glenn Ford

Interesting/Unknown Fact:
I competed in the AAU track nationals for many years and repeatedly got 4th.
