And her son never forgets what she did to help her reach this point now – being at the top of the Bulldogs depth painting to the ball carrier entering the 2025 season.
“His ethics of determination and work made me feel that I had no choice – I cannot give up,” said Frazier when he asked him about the influence of his mother. “No matter what happens to me, there is no cover because I literally watched it do it. No matter what came, she never fell. She never stopped, she never abandoned. She has always found her way.
“My mother never said to me,” son, I can’t do that. “My mother has always made a way for me, no matter what it was.

“I play for all the children at home, it doesn’t matter where they are,” said Frazier when he was asked who he was playing for every match day. “Even my hometown, but for children who do not believe that they can do it and think that it is impossible and unknown. I play for all the children who grew up in the type of situations in which I grew up, where the majority of the stuff is street life and things like that. I play for all the children who need to know that there are other options.
“I play for my family. Whenever there are difficult times or hard points [of the season]I just think of my family and all the difficulties we have experienced and things like that. They never abandoned me and were always in my corner, still in my circle. They were positive to me, no matter what it was. “”

Frazier knows it takes more
The emergence of Frazier as a key cog in the Bulldogs football program means opening new Nile opportunities, which have been over when Powerade refreshed the “It Takes More” campaign, which entered its third consecutive year before the university football season.

Being in this position is incredible, and that does not seem real to me. I am really blessed to be able to work with Powerade.”
As a real recruit last season by playing in the dry, the most difficult conference in university football, Frazier really understood the sense of “it takes more”.
“It takes overtime of film. You need overtime with your coach. It takes overtime for work on the field. It takes more studies in the game book. It takes more studies from the team against which you will play.
