So in a way to better understand the use of Deep Dish Football for lllinois recruits and the whole entire IHSA Football scene. Decided to do player profiles of players who you might not know or you might know , but you should respect them for their roles on their respective teams. Every Football Player Has A Story To Tell
Marvin Phipps Class of 2021 Curie 6'3 280 OL/DL


Marvin Phipps how was your 2018 season?
My 2018 season was very exciting. I got the opportunity to play with some great guys and against some great competition. I learned a lot and it set the tone for my improvements.
What schools have you been talking to?
I haven’t been in contact with any schools yet personally.
What would you like college coaches to know about you?
When you get Marvin you don’t just get a good player. I am a teammate and a leader. I am not a quitter I will fight and I will win at whatever I put my mind to
What does football mean to you?
All my life nothing has come easy. I had to crawl and fight for everything I got. Football is what I love for, being on that field with the pads and that helmet and my brothers beside is the most comfortable and natural area I can be in. I believe this is what I born to do.
What do you like about playing on the offensive line?
The offensive line is a different world. Everyone I know loves the defense because they believe they set the tone. But if I can play the opposite line and completely strip you of whatever confidence you have just by running you into the ground or stopping you in your tracks I now am the aggressor, and I control you
Give me a game that you are most looking forward to this upcoming season?
I honestly can’t wait to line up against Mount Caramel. They have a lot of talented guys, but it’s great competition.
Any funny Coach Ray stories?
There was a day we had practice and it was so cold out the team was questioning if any of the coaches would show up because it was so cold. And out of no where Coach Ray pops up in a dark blue robe and a hat and it was honestly hilarious. He said it was “ cold cold “.
Remember Deep Dish Football Is Just Not About Recruiting But About The Love Of The Game Of Football In The IHSA
RESPECT THE GAME
