Junior Running Back Doesn’t Allow Size to Slow Him Down<\/strong><\/p>\n

Chance Gray slays gridiron opponents on Friday nights, regardless of their size.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

National Scouting Report works with prospects at all degrees of ability, size, speed and strength.\u00a0 As long as they have the talent play at some college level, we can be of enormous help in getting their names and profiles into the hands of hundreds of college coaches for evaluations while assisting them in going throught the recruiiting process, step-by-step.\u00a0<\/p>\n

It is not uncommon for us to represent and promote stars and role players, starters and back-ups, record-setters and the solid, everyman athlete.\u00a0 Regardless of their physical makeup and attributes, if an athlete has the skills, and grades, to participate in college athletics, we can be the\u00a0catalyst to wonderful things happening in their lives.\u00a0 \u00a0<\/p>\n

Being undersized is an Albatross around the necks of many high school athletes, but not to Chance Gray of Concordia Lutheran High in Tomball, Tex., a suburb of Houston.\u00a0 You see, Chance\u00a0has figured out how to overcome his, shall we say, shortcoming, by putting up the type of numbers college football coaches find impossible to ignore.\u00a0<\/p>\n

But, Chance had no way of letting coaches know that he existed, much less was running wild with the football every Friday night for a private high school near Houston.\u00a0 So, he took matters into his own hands.\u00a0\u00a0 He acted on his wish to be known.\u00a0<\/p>\n

National Scouting Report veteran licensee and scout, Alan Driggers, Corpus Christi Area Director, was contacted by Chance through this very source, the NSR Weekly.\u00a0 Chance was receiving the newsletter, printed a cop and took it to his parents.\u00a0 They then contacted NSR and\u00a0asked\u00a0for a free in-home interview and evaluation.\u00a0 Alan\u00a0obliged and discovered one of the most\u00a0well-rounded young athletes\u00a0that he\u00a0had ever encountered.\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n

When we asked Alan why he decided to sign Chance to an NSR Elite Program, he said, “Chance is a terrific kid and very, very mature.\u00a0 He is in control of his recruiting process.\u00a0 When I went to their home for the first time, he came out to the drive way and met me and introduced himself and said he was excited and ready to get started.\u00a0 He is a little undersized on paper, but has huge heart and work ethic.\u00a0 You can\u2019t out work him.\u00a0 He would be a great wing back or slot receiver at the next level.”\u00a0<\/p>\n

Although a prodigious running back, Chance had not heard from a single college football program.\u00a0\u00a0However,\u00a0once NSR began to promote Chance to\u00a0colleges around the country,\u00a0Chance started hearing from interested programs right away and\u00a0 to date he is regularly hearing from 25 coaches.\u00a0<\/p>\n

With\u00a01807 yards rushing in the fall of 2010, Chance averaged\u00a011.22 yards per carry, outstanding in any league.\u00a0 He also ran for 21 rushing scores and had\u00a011 receptions for 185 yards (17.0 avg.) with three 3 TDs.\u00a0 He was named\u00a0District MVP and\u00a0led the team to the state playoff semi-final round.\u00a0 He runs a 4.47, 40-yard dash and 4.21 in the pro shuttle.\u00a0 Put that athletic talent together with a 4.5 GPA and you have what at NSR\u00a0we\u00a0call the quintessential high school prospect.\u00a0 He has the athletic stats and academic resume to\u00a0open tons of doors.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
