Not every great college football player is a child prodigy like Oregon Ducks QB Bo Nix. In his latest IG post, he dug into his childhood, as the quarterback forged himself a path in football from a very young age. Speaking of the setbacks and criticism he had faced, he said, “I’ve been flat on my face at times. As bad as it feels, I think the Lord has a plan for each one of us.“

Bo Nix is a true Heisman Trophy contender whose lifelong dream was to become a college football player. This season, he led Oregon to an 11-2 record despite not making it to the playoffs. The story isn’t over for Nix yet as he captioned the video with “He’s not done.”
