1. To whom it may concern,
Please consider this a recommendation for Drew Carter. I have known Drew for over 15 years and he has
always been a person I have had the utmost respect for. I first met Drew when he coached me as a freshman
football player at Sheldon High School. At the time I was new to the area, having transferred in from a different
school district. Obviously, this was a tough transition time for me but I will always remember Drew as one of
the first people to greet me with a smile and a handshake on my first day. As a football coach he instilled a great
feeling of pride into his players. Everyone strived to be their best for Drew and the school we played for, because
we knew he genuinely cared about us as players. More importantly he taught me that hard work and humility are
the keys to developing as a player and a person. From a professional aspect, Drew taught me a great deal about
being a quarterback as a young player. There was no doubt that he took much from his coaches and mentors and
was able to pass that on to his players. Drew has a very good understanding of offensive football and more
importantly is always striving to add to that knowledge. We were very successful as a team because Drew knew
how to bring us a together and get the most out of us as players.
As I have continued throughout my career, Drew and I have stayed in contact and been able to add to our
relationship. As a private QB instructor and QB coach at Lakeridge High School in Portland, I have taken the
things he taught me and been able to utilize them in my own coaching career. Drew and I have crossed paths at
a number of different clinics and I have seen him continue to work hard and strive to get better as a coach and a
mentor. He gathers information from those around him and continues to improve his knowledge base. His players
that have attended clinics I coach are always hard working, attentive and respectful which is a direct reflection of
his values. Drew has been around great programs and knows what it takes to reach that level. Most importantly
he cares about the people around him, whether they are players or colleagues, and genuinely strives to bring out
the best in them. I feel like Drew would be an excellent to your organization. Please feel free to contact me if
you have any questions.
