FRISCO, Texas — A high school quarterback for Arlington, Jahari Rogers is preparing for his college position of cornerback at The Opening Finals this week as he enters the final weeks before announcing his commitment.
“Man, The Opening is cool,” Rogers told Burnt Orange Nation’s Joe Hamilton. “I’ve been wanting to come here since I was little — seventh or eighth grade. Knowing that I’m actually here, it’s crazy. I’m getting to live out a dream, so it’s super cool.”
The high-level coaching staff for the Finals has included NFL legends like Jerry Rice, Ndamukong Suh, Marshawn Lynch, Richard Sherman, and Darrell Revis, among others, so prospects have an opportunity to learn technique and how to deal with success.
