Had the pleasure to see @johnnyferg2007 at Devos Children’s Hospital today, dude is an absolute trooper, fighting non-Hodgkin’s lymphoma, his 3rd battle with cancer. He has an amazing attitude and seems to be doing great.

I bet you skip neck work; I know I used to. Here's why this was a stupid move while playing an impact sport like football.
Strong neck muscles can absorb more impact, meaning less force reaches your brain when you take a hit. This reduces the chances of your head snapping around, which is a major cause of concussions. Research shows that athletes with stronger necks experience smaller head accelerations during impacts, lowering their concussion risk.

I've spoken w/ lots of college coaches the past week or so & 0 have asked about stats.They ask about grades(they matter), that ask about your character(it matters), they ask about your work ethic(it matters), they ask about passion for the game(it matters). FOCUS ON WHAT MATTERS!
