Personal Message
My name is Derrick Madison Jr, to most I am known as “DJ” and I'm a class of 2019 linebacker that attends Dover High School in Dover, Delaware. Football has always been a passion of mine ever since I was a young boy playing sandlot. I have dreamed about playing college football all my life. It has always been my goal to get my degree and compete at the college level. My dream is turning into reality. Thank you for taking the time to review my game film and athletic profile. Any consideration for your 2019 recruiting class would be greatly appreciated.
Football has helped me overcome things in my life. It has taught me the life skills that have groomed into becoming a young man. Most of all it has taught me about patience. I am a natural leader who leads by example. I work hard to achieve my goals, my coach’s goals, and the overall team goals. I am a person that is intelligent, curious, and hardworking. I am natural leader who plans and prepares extensively for every task I embraces. My team mates find my demeanor and character approachable, reliable, and trustworthy.
The life lessons I've learned from football I will use long after I stop playing the game. All I am looking for is the opportunity to showcase my ability as a football player. If given the chance I will show you that the risk you may feel you are taking will be outweighed by the reward you will gain by having me in your program.
Sincerely,
Derrick Madison Jr
