STATESBORO – The roar of thousands of Eagles fans echoed through Allen E. Paulson Stadium as freshman walk-on Tripp Bryant stepped onto the field for his first career field goal attempt.
In that moment, Georgia Southern's trust in him – and his belief in himself – came full circle.
With an extensive high school résumé, Bryant set his sights on competing at the collegiate level, and Georgia Southern was the first one in line, setting the stage for his journey as an Eagle.
"Going into my junior year, this was my first offer to play at the next level, so I came on a visit," Bryant said.
