I really want to play football in college. Texas is my top choice for location. Can you guys recommend some Division 2 colleges in Texas with decent football programs?
Sure! Texas is home to several Division 2 colleges with solid football programs as part of the NCAA. Here are some universities you might consider:
1. Angelo State University (ASU) in San Angelo
2. West Texas A&M University in Canyon
3. University of Texas Permian Basin (UTPB) in Odessa
4. Midwestern State University in Wichita Falls
Each of these universities has a competitive football program, and they're all part of the Lone Star Conference (LSC). As you research these schools, consider factors like coaching staff, facilities, team culture, and overall academic offerings. I recommend visiting the universities (if possible), attending games, and connecting with coaches and current players to get a better sense of each program.
Keep in mind that playing football in college requires dedication and time management, as you'll be balancing both academics and athletics. Shortlist the schools that fit your needs best and then begin reaching out to their respective coaches to express your interest and provide them with your stats and highlights.
Good luck with your college football journey!
