What will his stats look like as a senior in 2021?

Right now I don’t have an answer to that question!

Why?

Because the season doesn’t until September!

What I do know though is that Jake Bobo recently talked about Mental Health!

Why?

Because It's been an unprecedented last year, bringing #MentalHealth to the forefront more than ever. As we reflect on the past year, we've asked some of our guys what they've learned and what tips they have for taking care of your mental game.

This is what Jake Bobo had to say!

The Biggest thing that this past year taught me is the importance of trust in yourself. Knowing that really good days, really bad days, And that the bad days won’t last forever. You just need to hang on until they pass.

Something that usually helps me get through the tough times is just being outside and clearing my mind.
