History

Liam, being born in the middle of football country, was constantly exposed to football in many ways during his kittenhood. Be it on television, the local high school games, the college games, or even playing with the neighborhood kids, it was a huge part of his free time during his childhood. By the time he was eight he was already showing off in the pee wee teams at his elementary school.

Granted, this continued to grow as he entered high school, his body developing to a natural build for a tight end: heavier, stronger, but still decent speed and ability to catch a pass. Even between all the games and practice, he still often played with the neighborhood kids, becoming quite the "neighborhood star."

Eventually he was scouted and offered an athletic scholarship for Illinois P&C, where he still managed to maintain good grades on a Civil Engineering degree. While there, he was frequently found somewhere between the gym, the track, the practice field, and (possibly) his classes. Overall though, he quickly gained attention as one of the potential star players of the team, even as a tight end. He was often noted as being a fair balance of strength and speed. Not quite as fast as the wide receivers, but good hands and the strength to make it hard for him to be brought down - and known to give a good hit to help open up spaces for the WR.

Overall, he has been known to be a fairly level-headed individual - hard to anger, especially while playing a game he has always enjoyed.  He's generally a rather agreeable individual unless one really works to get under his fur. He plays for the love of the game and is happiest on the football field. He looks forward for the chance to become the newest member to rank among those who call themselves professional football players.
