Small Town Syndrome 

When a person grows up in a small town and develops a fear or a belief that they couldn't handle any or all of the following: 1) Living in a large city
2) Attending a large institution for education
3) Attend large social events without friends or family
4) Not needing a car out of necessity for transportation

These fears also usually are accompanied by:
1) Reluctance to drive in large cities or on major highways
2) Fear of being unknown or not receiving the status, accomplishments, or recognition they are able to achieve in smaller populations
3) Reluctance to leave their home or hometown for large periods of time
4) Fear of missing out on small town traditions

These people generally believe and can see themselves marrying one of their classmates/someone they went to school with, buying a house, and raising a family in their hometown.

Jakob is afraid that if he goes to a big school that he won't get to be the quarter back anymore. We're pretty sure he's suffering from Small Town Syndrome.
