“As of now, no colleges have been recruiting me.”
Do you have plans for more trips soon?
“I do not have any plans to go visit a college as of now.”
Did you have a favorite college growing up?

Dubuque Senior tight end Carson Tart
What colleges have been recruiting you as of late?
“Coaches from Bowling Green, Yale, Cornell, Dartmouth, and Columbia have all been communicating with me. I have had personal emails and messages from others, but I don't know where they are in the process.”
Have any schools mentioned scholarship offers at this point?
“I have had several phone conversations, messages and emails from the schools above.”
What college is recruiting you the hardest?
“I feel like Bowling Green, Cornell, and Yale are the most interested right now, but it's still early in the process for me and them.”
Do you have any trips coming up?
“I am visiting Bowling Green and Cornell in April, Dartmouth in May, and will be visiting a lot of other schools over the summer. Last summer, I attended camp at Yale and Harvard. I was really impressed with Coach Matt Cerins, the tight end coach at Yale. I felt like we hit it off and he would be a coach I would love to play for.”
Do you have a favorite college at this point?
“Right now, I want to listen to what schools have to offer. Academics are very important to me and it is important to me that the football players are well respected as students, not just football players.”
Where are you trying to go this summer for college camps?
“I will visit places that are sincerely interested in me and am keeping an open mind about the process and possibilities. I will definitely be visiting Ivy League schools and I am hopeful that more FBS schools will express interest in me as well.”
