Like The Work Of Deep Dish Football And Coach Big Pete?

Demontay Mack how was your junior season? I enjoyed it a lot... Varsity is a whole different atmosphere but the way that our team clicked on both sides of the ball, and just as teammates made it a whole lot smoother. I think it was what made our season so positive. What does football mean to you? I've always loved the sport I've been playing since a kid. There are many things I enjoy when it comes to the game being surrounded by other people who will continue to push themselves no matter what on and off the field. Striving to become the best version of themselves both physically and mentally have really helped me to mold into the person, I am today in short it means everything.

What should college coaches know about you? They should know that I’m passionate about what I do that I strive to be the best I possibly can at what I do. I would love to pursue football at the college level because there is always room to grow no matter what, and I want to become the best at what I do I want to perfect my craft. Will work harder than I ever have to do so on top of that I will be the first person in my family to go to college which would be a huge accomplishment. What do you like about playing in the trenches? I like how physical it is getting out there after a week of lifting and grinding, touching that field on Friday nights and just putting people on their ass feels good. How good can this Glenbard East defensive line be? This Glenbard East defense is looking great for next season, I can see physical changes and can tell that our players have mentally grown stronger.
