This is the story of how I have got to where I am now in the OCFA as of the pre-season of S2.
-Beginnings-
I started off playing football Legends years ago. I never really got into organized leagues like OFL because I didn't think I was good enough. The one time I went to a Panthers tryout, I was cut and left disappointed and didn't play ro-football again for months. It wasn't until I was told by a friend of mine that the OFL had created a college league that I even reconsidered trying out for a team.
-Starting My Career-
I went to check out the league, and 3 teams stood out to me. My first choice was ASU because they seemed to have a very level headed coach and good team. My second choice was UCLA because of some of the players on their team that I would later become close friends with. My last choice was FSU. I liked their coaching staff and would become friends with a lot of their S1 players as well. I would have been in an ASU uniform ASAP if it weren't for their being FSU tryouts the day I joined the OCFA. The tryouts were for DE and WR/CB. I went to the practice field and met the coach, DAFLAMING for the first time. I asked him if he needed an MLB, and he said that he did because the old one had just left a few days earlier. I quickly took the spot and within 3 days I was a starter.
-Season 1 (FSU)-
I missed the week 1 game against Alabama. On week 2, I was starting at MLB and we were playing UCLA. When their starting QB had to go, they sent in a backup. It was then that I recorded my first ever swat 6 and the first in OCFA history. That is still a defining moment in my career. We ended up losing the game due to poor officiating, but looking back, losing made me a better loser. In week 3, I faced the TAMU Aggies, whom I was fiercely rivaled with personally. I didn't have any highlight plays in the game, but I had a ton of tackles and very few passes went mid for the 3 quarters I could stay. After this loss, FSU fell inactive and had no practices the entire week. I asked for a release and was granted one.
-Season 1 (ASU)-
After being released from FSU, I decided that since I'd made somewhat more of a name for myself, I would try to go to the first school I'd picked, ASU. This time, I made it, but there were 2 other talented MLBs at ASU. We competed for playing time in practice, but I was never able to go to a game in an ASU uniform due to my grandpa's passing IRL. Before the 1st round of the playoffs, Plagium posted on the wall to PM him if you were interested in playing for him on FSU. I PMed him and told him that I was interested and I could come after ASU's season was over. I went to FSU the Monday after losing to TAMU in the first round of the playoffs on Sunday.
-Offseason S1-S2-
I think I was the first semi-big name of a huge recruitment wave to come to FSU. Arriving there, things were shaky. Nobody knew who was declaring for draft, FSU had no QB after losing Camboo after S1. We had a bunch of players leaving and a lot of inactivity due to the new coach. This is when news of amusing, the former UCLA HC, was coming to FSU to QB started spreading. Following him was two of UCLA's recievers from S1, amish and drake. Along with that, RayWest, TAMU's WR and backup RB also transferred in. He was followed by JimmyGBuckets, another backup WR at TAMU. After that wave of recruits, we started developing the older members of the team to play more positions and also master their positions. Our RB, marshawn received special training from plag on RB, our DE's worked hard and built a strong connection. We picked up another good QB in sports, and some new parts to our defense.
-Future-
I can't predict the future, but here's how my ideal future career would be up until next season. I'd like to win the TB with FSU and be scouted heavily by the OFL. Winning awards doesn't really matter to me, although a Heisman would be nice (a defensive player can dream, right? :3). After winning the TB, I'd like to enter to OFL draft and be drafted to the new team that plagium inherits in the OFL. Part of the deal is if we win and plag gets a job as HC in the OFL, I'll take his spot as HC of FSU.
That's pretty much it. Not a great story, as it's just one season. I'll add to this as I do more and go different places. |
