Avery Flactiff how was your junior season? It was a solid season, the team and I were disappointed with the outcome. However there were upsides. They had to change my position a couple different times during the season to fill holes. I definitely believe I stepped up as a contributor and earned my spot. This was my first year playing fullback and by the end of the year, I became a huge part of the offense.
What does football mean to you? Football is more than just a game to me. I believe in the team being a collective family. Any of my brothers on the field I would trust with anything outside of football. I love that aspect, and the fact that it can bring all types of people together as a whole, no matter the circumstances. What do you feel is your strongest trait on the football field? I feel as if my strongest trait is my mind, and work ethic. I am constantly trying to perfect my craft. I will always get better every rep. My football IQ is high, and I am able to use that to my advantage while seeing plays unravel.
What should college coaches know about you? I am a dedicated player. No opportunity given to me will be taken for granted. I will continue to work hard, and am very coachable. What goals do you have for yourself this upcoming season? My goals are to be a leadership role on the team and push everyone to be the best they can be, including improving myself as a player. Our team has a ton of talent, and I hope to lead us deep into the playoffs. Who is the funny guy on the Rock Island team? His name is Payten Bunch
