Texas Gun-Slinger coming to the Hill

After speaking with Mauro, he seems eager to get his career at WKU underway. QB James Mauro 6'7'' 215 from Texas told me he felt very comfortable being on the hill and with the coaching staff as they recruited his brother in 2009 recruit to Stanford Josh Mauro DE, he also said "he like the feel of WKU when he stepped on campus". 

One of the first questions I asked Mauro was, " Who is the most influential person is your life and why?" He responded, "My mom... She does a great job of taking care of us and she works hard". Mauro went on to say that he is not sure if he is going to red shirt or not his freshman year but there is definitely competition for the starting QB position and he is going to have to work hard for the top spot. His recruiting was handled by Coach White.  Mauro is still unsure of what he wants to major in but already has plans on what he is going to work on while making the transition from high school to college football.

Strengths: His ability to see the field and make decisions are some of his strengths he told me.
Weaknesses: He said he wanted to work on his foot speed and overall strength before stepping onto the hill.


Mauro is currently playing basketball for his high school.
