My Take
What draws me to Marlon Hairston is the quiet defiance of his career choice. Coming out of Jackson, Mississippi, where football and basketball usually claim the best young athletes, he went to the University of Louisville and committed to soccer instead. At 183 cm he has played both midfield and full-back, which tells me he is the kind of adaptable, team-first professional coaches quietly rely on rather than the one who hogs the headlines. I respect that breed of player enormously. The fact that he still keeps an active social presence hints at someone grounded and approachable, and I find that genuinely likable.
