Ryan Neill

Bio

My name is SSG Ryan Neill and I have spent 6 years as a US Army Infantryman.

After high school I played basketball for Covenant College for one semester and after receiving bad grades (due to me not being ready for college) I decided to enlist. Originally I was stationed at Fort Meyer next to Arlington National Cemetery in Washington DC where I spent a large amount of time working with foreign dignitaries and high ranking officials (to include the President) throughout the Military District of Washington.

I re-enlisted for Fort Stewart, GA and the 3rd Infantry Regiment to be a little closer to home. A few taskings I have undergone here are; I have been a part of training a National Guard unit to prepare for a combat deployment, deployed to South Korea as a deterrent to North Korean Forces, sent to West Point to train future Army Leaders in a field environment, and been put in charge of the accountability and training of an entire Section of Bradley Fighting Vehicles plus their crews.

In high school I played WR and DB for Hiram High School as a Freshman were I lettered with Varsity. After that year I moved to Pickens County where I started on offense and defense for three years at WR and CB. I do not have any relevant high school tape (to my knowledge) to send you. I have coaches who can be contacted to speak on my behalf if requested. Once I am out of the Army I will translation to the National Guard to continue to serve while attending your University.

I am a student of the game and my plan is to become a coach after this. I will give it my all on the field and in the weight room but also soak up all the knowledge the coaching staff has to offer.
