The James family are no strangers to football, like many other families in Canadian, Texas (population 2,000) Growing up on a cattle ranch with his older brother Jackson, Stetson James was always trying to one-up his older brother. Upon Jackson leaving for Austin to play for the Longhorns, and eventually on into the NFL, Stetson has looked to fill in right where his brother has left off bringing the same toughness and grit that runs through the James household. Now, after leading the Canadian Wildcats to their 1st Texas 3-A title since his older brother played, he’s ready to follow in his brother’s footsteps and have a successful collegiate career.
