Quote:Written option: Reflect on your player’s career, from their first football game to their current career in the ISFL or DSFL, and expound upon one particular story where your player faced their “welcome to the league” moment. How did the change in competition between college and the league, or between the DSFL and ISFL, initially challenge your player? Did they suffer a drop in stats or an ugly debut game? How did they rebound from it?
For Frank Dux, I think his biggest welcome to the league moment really hit (at least his favorite), is when he officially became a starting running back for the Chicago Butchers last season. For Frank, he has lofty goals and being a backup running back required patience until the team was ready for him to take over for Zohri. Starting in the season opener on the first offensive down meant the world to Frank and truly showed that he had made it as a professional football player. It's hard enough to make it to the league and survive for several seasons but to truly make it to him, he needed to be a starter and a focal point of the offense. So getting carries and receptions and putting the ball in the endzone just felt different last year compared to his first two seasons. The jump from DSFL to ISFL was a relatively lofty one however Frank made it work as a wide receiver and finally transitioned into his actual position of running back.
