"I've known the kid for his whole life, since he's been in Pampers," Kenwood head coach Sinque Turner said. Thunderbird finished his senior year with 109 tackles (six for loss), three fumble recoveries and two forced fumbles. We have definitely been trying to develop and motivate the younger group of kids here to keep the train rolling." Coach Q brought us in and we've been building brick by brick. "I appreciate all my coaches and everybody who played a role in helping me through the process," he said.
As he prepares to sign, he will be one of several from the school to go off and play major college ball and he is grateful for the opportunities the program has brought him. Thunderbird announced his commitment at Kenwood Academy, a school that, not long ago, was not known for football and did not produce many college players. "They said it's a beautiful place to be at and they'll come down there whenever they can to make games." "My parents loved the state of Arizona, loved the people in Arizona, loved everything about it," he explained. His official visit helped make his parents comfortable with that distance as well. Tempe is farther away from Chicago than some of the programs Thunderbird initially considered, but by the end of this process, he was considering schools from across the country. "They just showed me that they wanted me and how I fit their system and how I'd have a chance of possibly coming in and making an impact." "On my visit, I spent time with Coach Cooper, the defensive coordinator Coach Ward and the head coach, Coach Dillingham, really all of them," Thunderbird said. The new Sun Devils staff led by head coach Kenny Dillingham prioritized Thunderbird down the stretch and linebackers coach A.J.
They already have a lot there and they're building more on campus." There was a great atmosphere there and the community is amazing. "The coaches showed love to me, my family, everything there was beautiful. He is coming off of an official visit with the Sun Devils. Thunderbird, an active 6-foot-1, 215-pound backer, chose the Sun Devils over a top five that also included Colorado, Purdue, Tennessee and Oregon.
