Raiders rookie LB Ben Heeney set adorable goals at age 12, then accomplished them

We all remember having big goals when we were young. Most of those goals seem pretty pie-in-the-sky and if you get a chance to look back on them, it can be quite adorable. Though usually in a 'I was so naive' type of way. Not Ben Heeney. He made some goals when he was 12-year-old that he then went out and accomplished.

Earlier today, Heeney -- who became a fifth round pick by the Raiders two weeks ago -- shared those goals, in original adorable 12-year-old handwritten form.

Those dreams included:

High School goal: In High School I want to make varsity on the football team. I want college coaches to come to the games and scout me for the team. I will play hard

Training College: I would like to go to the University of Kansas or a better team in football. My parents went to KU. I want a football scholarship.

(check, check)

Career: I want to play in the NFL. It would be so fun and I would make a lot of money. I would train hard. After the NFL, I would like to be the head coach for a college football team.

(check, TBD)

That's some amazing foresight and determination. And after accomplishing everything up to this point, should we just start calling him coach Heeney now, or...?
