As parents you dream of days like yesterday! Caden has put in the work and is willing to do what it takes! He’s been a great example for our house and our community! The @IlliniFootball stepped up and has a great vision for @CadenConsidine1 and his future.

It is amazing that @BretBielema had a big part of me becoming a Hawkeye 27 years ago and yesterday we came full circle and he’s playing an even bigger role bringing our son to the University of Illinois. The character and integrity he has put together with his staff and players down in Champaign is impressive.

A special shoutout needs to be sent to @coachPatRyan! Coach B and Pat have a goal to keep the best Illinois High School football players at home and that message was meaningful to Caden. There is no better man than Pat Ryan and his relationships with @IHSFCA1 will continue to pay big dividends for Illini football for years to come!

Congrats Cado! Now get to work buddy because this is just the start for you!

Ole Miss HC Pete Golding - Tackling Fundamentals

- Approach (Tag Tempo)
- Arrival (Thud Tempo)
- Finish (Live Tempo)

"I think the most critical piece to tackling is the approach.

Approach Emphasis: Angle/Help, Long to Short Stride (Shimmy), Near Foot/Near Shoulder.
