Guest: Will Jones (Maryville High School Football)

Will Jones joins the podcast to talk share his incredible experience as Maryville High School's QB. He got significant playing time as a 9th grader, which in Maryville, means he was playing while not even a student at MHS. He had to get a hardship driver's license just to be able to make it to practice as 9th graders attend the junior high school in Maryville. Will made it work and then some. He's a player that goes above and beyond to give his team an advantage, and we get to learn all about what makes him tick in this interview.
