Davon Watson Marist Defensive Tackle Class Of 2024 6'4 328


Davon Watson how was your junior season? It was amazing. Very humbling and informational, it showed me what it takes to be a real varsity player and what big steps I have to take to prepare myself for my senior year. Loved the experience. What does football mean to you? My life, it’s everything to me. I’ve been playing since I was in 1st grade and fell in love with the football. It’s something I want to do until I physically can’t anymore. This is how I’m going to make a better life for me and my family so football is all I have in my eyes. What schools have you talked to so far? * Minnesota State
* Toledo
* Ohio University
* Miami of Ohio
* Arizona State University
* Indiana State University
* Iowa
* Mizzou
* Central Michigan
* Northern Michigan
* Bowling Green
* University of Buffalo
That’s my list.
What should college coaches know about you?
I move pretty good for my size. Anything you need me to do I’ll do it. I used to be a player that did a lot of complaining, this past football season and off-season. I’ve realized I cut that down a lot and i just get to work.
What do you like about playing in the trenches?
Everything! It’s real physical and I love playing physical football. It’s where everything begins and I love the tension between O-line and D-line before the play starts.
What is your dream school to attend? Honestly, probably wanting to go back down south at Georgia, but Arizona State University is my other top pick.
Remember Deep Dish Football Is Just Not About Recruiting
But About The Love Of The Game Of IHSA Football
RESPECT THE GAME
