Early years
"Benoit Blanco, born to mother Marie and father Jean-Pierre, he was born into a very wealthy, but very footballrich family. For as long as Benoit knew, his ancesters, his whole family were very much into football, were big footballplayers and he stemmed from greatness. Because of this, his passion for the game also began very early on, but more forcefully than some kids may have had it. He was a normal kid, he went to a normal High School (College Saint-Joseph Du Hull) and had a great upbringing. His parents knew if they were going to get him to have a big passion for football, they had to make him happy, so they sent him to school with his friends while he learned football privately through the families personal connections.
Will he become a stud? We believe so, his family believes so, but only time will tell. Please note there is not many French-born stars, he plans to be "
DSFL Career
"Blanco was asked to partake in Dukes underage program, a program not given out to many players or students in general but one that is for those gifted with potential that the school sees fit enough for them to be there. When it comes to Benoit, he was their exception. When he joined Duke, his schooling forced him to pick a subject, in which he went to school for Engineering. Under his French flowing hair and beauty looks, he was actually very smart and this helped him both on and off the field.
When it came to his actual playing time with the Blue Devils, Blanco seen a lot of it. He was their starting player for the first year of his career and he absolutely killed it for them. He had a total of 200 complete passes with 44 touchdowns which was just simply unheard of for a rookie Wide Reciver, but he just clicked with his Quarterback and things progressed quickly. A lot of scouts came to see him, and they eventually learned that he was skilled far beyond his years, far beyond his levels, and so he was introduced to the NSFL. "
===========================
2037 DSFL Season (S22)
In Season 22, we would see the debut of Benoit Blanco, who at the time was a very highly scouted prospect who joined the league just slightly late for the draft and was waiver eligible. After his 48 hour waiting period passed, Blanco would find out that he has been claimed by the Norfolk Seawolves, and so his inaugural season would begin. Blanco was slotted as more of a depth receiver, and in the early goings as he was behind in practice hours, he wasn't really seeing the ball. But as he progressed rather quickly, you could see that he was becoming more of an option, and an on-field threat to the opposition. By the season's end, while his numbers were nothing that were making headlines, he finished with some reasonable numbers that most would not shrug off. He was 7th in catches with twenty-three receptions which totaled up to 222 yards, which was good for 23rd in the league and finally he did manage to get one single touchdown which surprisingly enough had him tied for 5th place in the league for overall touchdowns. At the end of the day, this is an achievement for Blanco as he finishes his first official season with his new team and is now looking forward to the NSFL draft.
Season Highlight: "In their final game of the season, Benoit Blanco catches and runs for 28 yards on one of the final plays of the last (deciding) game of the season which allows running back Sunshine Titan to run the ball in for the game-tying score, which allowed the team to win in overtime."
