Early years
Theo Lariat was born in Cincinnati to Tex and June Lariat. While his parents were born Texans, they relocated to Cincinnati before Theo was born. His athletic career got its start by way of soccer, Lariat is an avid FC Cincinnati supporter, but when his high school football team was in desperate need of a kicker, Lariat answered the call and served as a surprisingly competent rookie in his junior year. With marked improvement in the off season, Lariat returned to put up remarkable stats his senior year. While his team ultimately fell short of post-season success, Theo's efforts were impressive enough to attract the attention of local scouts. He was approached by the University of Cincinnati during his senior season, and that is who he ultimately selected. When asked why he chose University of Cincinnati to start his college football career, Lariat said "Cincinnati has always been home to me, it's treated me well. I trust that the city will continue to provide me new opportunities."
College career
"His soccer career now a distant memory, Lariat's freshman year at UCIN saw drastic improvement in his skills. When asked for comment at the time, special teams coaching staff insider had the following to say, ""When we brought Theo on, I admit I was skeptical. The kid grew up on a soccer field and just didn't have the proven background that you'd like to see. He's grown on me, that's for sure. The kid has work ethic as good as anyone in the league and his accuracy numbers have only gotten stronger this season."" Praise of this nature is found easily around the UCIN organization, coaches, teammates, and office staff seem to hold Lariat in high regard.
With similar momentum up to the present, Theo Lariat has shown himself to be a top kicker in the league. Current statistics show him holding a field goal percentage of 94.9% and 2.04 field goals per game, and he appears to be living up to the hype that Cincinnati has begun to build around this young prospect."
