Early years
Dino Nuggets was born in Portland, Oregon to Tyrannosaurus Rex (Dad) and Chicken Nugget (Mom). Tyrannosaurus Rex was an Olympic athlete while Chicken Nugget was eaten alive by millions on a daily basis. As you could imagine, doctors didn't know what to expect for Dino Nuggets. Nuggets overcame the odds, but was always one of the smallest kids in his classes growing up.
During his Senior year in High School, Nuggets hit a giant growth spurt and decided to start playing sports. While he was a star in baseball and track & field, football was where he really shined. Lining up at wide receiver, cornerback, returner, and sometimes quarterback in the wildcat formation, Nuggets led his team to a State Championship. College scouts took notice and he was a consensus 5* recruit across all major recruiting platforms including 247, ESPN, and Rivals.
On National Signing Day, with offers from every top school in the country, Nuggets decided to stay in his home state of Oregon and sign with the Oregon Ducks.
