Six Star — How would you describe your style of play in your position to those who have never seen you play before?
Cade —I would describe my game as fast. I feel like the first thing that would come to people that first see me play is that I’m fast. And I can block well on the outside for my teammates.
Six Star — Describe your season and, how do you feel you played overall for 2018?
Cade —This season hasn’t been the best for me, we had a rough start to the year, and then I dislocated my shoulder and I’ve been out for two weeks. But that doesn’t stop me from supporting my brothers on the field. Blocking is one thing that has improved from last year to this year. And maturity is one thing that has changed for me.
Six Star — Tell us about the experience and what you were able to take away from it, what camps you attended?
Cade —I’ve been to a couple of camps. I went to NWOSU, UCO, and OSU this summer. And I went to Rivals Combine in Dallas, Texas. When I was at those camps there were some good competition all over. I loved competing against some of the best athletes.
