Series takes a look at all of the new transfers joining the Eagles
STATESBORO - The Georgia Southern football program has announced its January enrollees which include 16 transfers. GSEagles.com had a chance to sit down with each of the transfers for a quick Q&A so all of Eagle Nation can get to know their new Eagles. Up next is Tyler Fromm, from Auburn.
NAME: Tyler Fromm
Tight End • 6-5 • 245 • Sixth Year
Warner Robins, Ga.
Warner Robins HS • Auburn
What attracted you to Georgia Southern when you were making a decision to transfer?
Honestly, there are a lot of good coaches over here that I had previous relationships with. That part really stuck out to me the most. Also, being an hour and a 45 minutes from home and being close, along with there being a lot of people I knew who came and played here played a factor in the decision. It just seemed like a great fit for me and a great place to be.
What do you like to do when you're away from football?
Hunt, fish, play golf and hang out.
What's your pregame ritual?
Honestly, I stay away from all that superstitious stuff.
What do you prefer - a book, a movie or a video game?
Probably a movie. Insterstellar and Inception are up there as two of my favorites.
What's the last show you binge-watched?
Breaking Bad
If you weren't a football player, what sport would you go to college to play?
Baseball
After football is over, what is your current career aspirations?
I want to fly planes. That would be really cool.
What's something most people don't know about you?
I graduated from Auburn with a degree in professional flight. Whenever you finish that up, you're commercially rated as a pilot so I have that in my back pocket. So whenever I'm done with football, I'll be flying planes. I've got my license and a decent amount of flight hours logged.
Finally, what aspect of gameday in Paulson Stadium are you looking forward to experiencing on Aug. 31 against Boise State?
I've heard it's crazy and a lot of fun. They tell me it gets really loud in there. Just experiencing all of that is what I'm most excited about.
Georgia Southern opens its 2024 season at home on Saturday, Aug. 31 against defending Mountain West champion Boise State as part of an exciting six-game home schedule at Allen E. Paulson Stadium. Ticket renewals are underway and information can be found at GSEagles.com/PowerOfPaulson.
