What They’re Saying

Coach Joseph on Shep Klinke:
“Shep’s an intelligent football player that has a chance to be really outstanding at the next level. He’s 6-6, 290 pounds and is very athletic for a big kid. He’s got good feet, moves well and isn’t afraid to work. He’s got well over a 4.0 GPA, so he picks up on things really quickly.”

Shep Klinke:
“I think I’m most looking forward to the competition.  There were times in high school when it was just a complete mismatch.  I’m ready for a challenge.  You know, all the websites can say you’re this or that, but you never know until you actually get out there and play.  Our coaches at Katy are second to none, and they’ve taught us great fundamentals and how to play the game with intensity and with a desire to win.  I’m looking forward to carrying that to the next level.”
