Aidan is a very skilled play-making Pro-Style Quarterback who can make every level of throw on the field that sees the field, and can deliver some laser passes with precision and accuracy. Aidan possesses a strong arm, has excellent footwork, and can carve up a defense whether in the pocket with time but versatile enough to roll that pocket and throw effectively on the run. With a high IQ, Aidan also processes quickly when plays are breaking down and needs to pull it down and run. Even under pressure, Aidan can kill a defense with punishing passes.
Aiden's biggest improvement from last season is his leadership. Aidan earned to be more focused and assertive over the past year. Aidan didn't play much last season, but so far this season, Aidan has really come alive, earning the trust and confidence needed to thrive, going 71/133 for 1231 Yards with 15 TD’s vs 11 Int and 3 Rushing TDs.
Before the snap, Aidan sees 1. Matchups, 2 Safeties (Single-high, 2 high), 3 Linebackers, 4 Defensive line, and through all of this recognizing and analyzing based on what he saw on film about his opponent.
What fuels Aiden's fire the most on the field is passion to be the best player that he can be.
When facing adversity Aidan considers it the same way Kobe Bryant described. Good day/game, you gotta get up and work again. Bad day/game, get up and go to work again. The results will play out as they play out.
A coach can expect Aidan to be a hardworking, humble, coachable, and diligent Quarterback.
Aidan's advice to those coming behind him is always to suggest that they just keep grinding. If you love it, just keep at it. Don’t get discouraged.
Aidan sees himself paying at the D1 level. Aidan has interest right now and is going to be trying to attend as many camps as possible over the off-season, while prepping for next year. Aidan believes that when he goes to camps with coaches that are interested, he will earn a scholarship. The most important thing to Aidan will be the relationship with the coaches and the opportunity to play early and develop. Aidan is looking for a school with a good Business/Finance program. Any school with ties to his grandpa, Coach Leo Brouhard, will attract Aidan. His grandpa passed away before Aiden was born and has been an inspiration to his journey. Aidan loved reading his mom’s article about him catching the big interception for Kansas State to beat their rival Nebraska. Aidan will play at any level to continue his journey to the NFL.
The best coaching advice Aidan has received from NFL/College/High School Football Coach Dechon Burns is, “Control the Controllables!”
Aidan has had conversations with/ Dartmouth, Southern Utah, Utah Tech, and Troy camp invites from Prairie View A&M, Sam Houston State, some D2s, D3s, and NAIA schools as well. Aidan has over 50 D1 School football coaches and over 60 lower-level School football coaches who follow him on Twitter.
I assess that Aidan is a natural with a strong football pedigree running through his veins. Aidan has demonstrated this year alone how high his potential and ability to perform at a high level truly is. With this rate of development, there is no misunderstanding as to why there is a buzz about Aiden. The numbers don't lie for the first-year starting breakout season. Aidan is just beginning to scratch the surface of how good he can be. Seeing the work Aidan puts in and endless hours of training, he will live his dream and set the stage to pursue his ultimate goal in the NFL if the grind never stops and Aidan stays hungry and a sponge for learning with the ability to translate it all on the field. This dazzling gem is one to keep a close eye on, and we will revisit Aidan's progress before next season. Get on this train now, as it's taking off and will only pick up steam! Stay tuned.
