Message: [QUOTE="Capt. Tuttle, post: 3164095, member: 191"] At smaller schools there may not be as many big kids, but kids are just bigger now. My parental experience is a bit jaundice (my kids went to BVille) but my youngest, at 6'3" and about 215lbs his senior year, was annually recruited by the FB coach as a tight end, not a lineman. There were plenty of guys as big or bigger (Gabe Horan being one. Our neighbor, who was about 6'3", 320lbs, being another.) People keep looking for reasons he won't succeed, and for the most part project stereotypes to support their argument. The only other guy to do what he did, at his school, in his league, wound up as a college All American and NBA player. If the league was so bad, surely someone else would have come close. They haven't. [/QUOTE]
