Wylie senior Balin Valentine has a pretty simple view of his job as the Bulldogs quarterback. He’s back there to make plays, plain and simple. 

Viewing each and every play call as a potential touchdown, Valentine treats each snap with that type of urgency, refusing give up on its success until the whistle is blown.

With a knack for scrambling and the ability to throw accurately on the move, Valentine’s fearlessness and gunslinger mentality have served him and the Wylie offense well this year. And while those things may or may not have added a gray hair or two to the head of Clay Martin, the first-year Wylie head coach isn’t about to change the way his quarterback views or plays the game.
