His proper name is テリー•焼 (Terii Yaki). From a young age Terry Yaki played peewee football with his father being the coach of his teams and teaching him all of his professional knowledge along the way. Yaki then played American Football at Osaka Prefectural Kitano High School. Yaki was reluctant to tryout for the American Football team at his school in his first year due to conflict about following in his father's footsteps. However after accidentally showing the school's coach his hidden talent the coach begged him to join. Yaki reluctantly joined at the beginning of the following season. Starting in his junior year he made it to and won the Christmas Bowl in his first and second year playing at Kitano. He was scouted by several American schools but ultimately took the only FBS offer at South Florida. |
