A student at UCC, Eoin first played football at U8 in the Castle Grounds, Macroom. He cites his parents and coaches as the strongest influence on his playing career, and his greatest achievement to date has been winning the Sigerson Cup in 2011 with UCC. The best player he has ever seen is Ciarán McDonald, and if their was a transfer market in football, he would buy Michael Meehan. His best football memory outside of playing is Cork's All-Ireland win in 2010, and his favourite sport outside of football is golf. As a child he wanted to be a pilot, and likes to relax by watching tv. The person he would most like to meet is Russell Brand, and if marooned on a desert island, he could not be without his iphone!
