About Neako
What's your biggest strength as a player, and how does it show up in games?
My biggest strength is making plays with the ball in my hands. I combine vision, quickness, and contact balance to create explosive plays, and I bring the same physical, high-energy mentality on defense. My goal every game is to make an impact and help my team win.
What are you working to improve right now?
Right now, I'm working on getting faster, becoming more explosive, and improving my route running and pass-catching so I can be an every-down player. On defense, I'm focused on reading plays faster, improving my tackling angles, and continuing to become a better leader. I know there's always something to improve, so I work every day to get better.
What are you looking for in a college program?
I'm looking for a college program with great coaching, a strong team culture, and a commitment to player development and academics. I want to compete at the highest level, earn my degree, and be part of a program that feels like family.
Outside of your sport, what should coaches know about you?
Outside of football, coaches should know that I'm respectful, coachable, and always willing to put in the work. I take pride in representing my family, my teammates, and my community the right way. I enjoy learning, competing, and encouraging others to be their best. I understand that success comes from discipline, consistency, and having a positive attitude, and I try to bring those qualities.
What do you want to study, and what career interests you?
I'm still exploring what I want to study, but I'm interested in sports, business, and media. My goal is to earn a college degree while playing football at the highest level. After football, I'd like a career where I can stay connected to sports, whether that's coaching, sports business, broadcasting, or owning a business. Right now, my focus is working hard in the classroom and on the field.
