I am excited to announce I will be doing a postgraduate year at Phillips Exeter. I want to thank my family, Coach Kerr, Coach Joe and everyone who’s helped me throughout my journey. I also want to thank Coach Rafferty for his belief in me and this amazing opportunity! Go Big Red

11 Things To Know About PG’ing This Fall:
• PG spots are not unlimited.
• PG spots are not a golden ticket.
• PG spots are hard to come by - you need to be a DUDE.
• PG spots should be pursued along w colleges so you have options. Apps due in December, Decisions come in March.
• PG spots do not burn NCAA eligibility unlike a JUCO year would.
• It’s a lot easier to reclass than it is to PG. Almost no school will take a PG kicker unless they have a lot of PG spots open.
• The last year most preps can reclass you is your junior year. If you’re a kicker, that’s the year you should try a move.
• PG spots tend to workout better for players who already have some college attention as HS seniors but maybe need to (1) boost grades (2) got a late start or (3) need a little more time to develop into the level of CFB recruit they could be.
• The PG process looks a lot like a regular college application process and is not an exact science.
• You can do everything right and a PG year still doesn’t get you to the school of your dreams or you get injured.
• But, a PG year, when it makes sense, will likely get you (1) better academics (2) another year to physically develop and (3) get you a spot in the pond where more college coaches recruit.
LFG!!! It’s gameday and time for my boys @JacksonParke3 & @teddyhoffmann_ to show the country what they’re about! Give nothing and take absolutely EVERYTHING!!! @CoachRobertson2
