LeBron James? Tom Brady? Katy Perry? Who do you think Athlete of the Year and Texas A&M commit Kyler Murray wanted to meet most at the ESPYs?

Two-time MaxPreps National Football Player of the Year, 2014-15 Athlete of the Year and Gatorade 2015 Athlete of the Year Kyler Murray of Allen (Texas) was asked that last week and the list of names he came up with might surprise you.

Or maybe not.

Spoiler alert: We actually asked for names who would be present at last week's ESPYs so that narrowed the list somewhat.



We're guessing, you could name many of them. Just not the first one, the one he wished to meet first.

Listen to his response at the Los Angeles Hotel Downtown after last week's ceremony.

Murray, who won his last 43 high school football games, will attend Texas A&M in the fall. He accounted for 6,213 yards and 78 touchdowns last season, leading Allen to a 16-0 record. He is the only two-time MaxPreps Football Player of the Year and he led Allen to three straight 6A state titles.
