There are many layers to Lincoln Victor. He recently received a scholarship to play football as a wide receiver for Washington State University after transferring last year. But, Victor said he wants his legacy to be more than just playing football.

Victor said that he wants to impact not only the team, but also the community, the fan base and the university. He strives to be the best football player ever to come out of WSU. Not just receiver, but overall football player. He said that it is important to be great on the field, but what he does outside those lines matters too.

"I want to leave Pullman with the legacy of 'That guy was special,' in multiple ways, not just for what I did with the ball in my hands but how I treated people, how I talked to people, how I carried myself, the leader I was in the community, things I was willing to do that others weren't," Victor said.

Victor is still fresh into being a Cougar, after transferring from the University of Hawaii last year. He is from Maui and takes immense pride in being from the island, but said having two places to call home has been a blessing.

He originally chose to play in Hawaii so that he could play in front of his family, despite offers from several schools.

Victor credits his dad for helping mold him into the man he has become. He said that his dad has coached him since he was 5 years old. His work ethic definitely comes from his dad, who works three jobs to provide for his family. He said he is thankful for much of the advice his dad has given him, particularly: "Hard work never goes unnoticed."

Victor is stepping into a leadership role for the Cougs and plans to take it head on. Prior to college, he played quarterback for 10 years and he said the leadership skills are already engraved in his brain.

He said that he is willing to do anything to help the team, even playing multiple positions. He said that it's about his value toward the team and what he can get done for them. He said that if there was a credit score on football players, he would want the highest credit score possible.

"When someone says my name, I want them to not be able to stop talking about me because they want their kids to be how I was," Victor said. "But at the end of the day, I want someone looking up to me, to be better than me."

Victor is entering his senior year at WSU and will be the Cougs' top receiver. If the spring game, where he led the team with six receptions for 96 yards and two touchdowns, is an indication of what's to come this fall, Lincoln Victor is about to blow up.
