Carter Goad (born June 9, 2037) is an American football offensive lineman for the Dallas Birddogs of the Developmental Simulation Football League (DSFL).

Early years

Growing up in the small Indiana town of Chesterton, Goad didn’t try football until his sophomore year of high school. He immediately fell in love with physicality of the sport and was a natural fit on the offensive line, even if he wasn’t the biggest. The anonymity suited his personality as well. He provided the following quote to his local news station after he was left off the All-State Team: “If I put in the work and complete my assignment each play, I’m putting my teammates in the best position to succeed and make plays. I don’t need the accolades or the praise.” Goad became a technician along the offensive line to make up for his smaller frame. While this wasn't necessarily a problem in high school, it did prevent him from getting any big time college offers. After his final senior season, he made it a point to overhaul his body to continue his football career.

College career

"Carter Goad didn’t get any scholarship offers from any big college football programs, so he ended up going to the Wichita State, a low-end division II school. His football career would have ended here under normal circumstances. His first three years, Goad (and the team) struggled. Says Goad “I considered quitting football during that time. I was lost and directionless and wasn’t improving my craft. I was getting beat on a regular basis. The team was lucky just to score points much less win. But I am so happy that I stuck with it. My final year everything just came together.”

The difference? It’s hard not to point to the new hire at head coach, Ted Lasso. As Carter himself stated during a DSFL Draft interview, “Coach Lasso energized the whole building. He made the team believe that winning was possible. He taught us to trust each other and what it means to play for the person next to you. And he knew his football.”

His senior season, Goad started every game and didn’t allow a single sack as the Shockers won the Division II National Title. While he wasn’t the most well-known player on that team, his play was good enough to get an invite to the Prospect Bowl. Goad hopes to impress teams and increase his draft stock through this opportunity. "
