Good for this kid going to his dream school and seeing if the football stuff works out. Obviously the kid is very intelligent and he has a great frame to possibly work into a scholarship football player. He might have academic scholarships to lean on until then. Welcome to the Cuse Family Ryan!
Don't all Syracuse City School District Graduates get free tuition at Syracuse (assuming they get accepted)?
I have no idea, but that would be cool if they do. Never heard of something like that.
Interesting that on a HS baseball team at a school with low participation numbers, this great athlete is a DH. Makes me wonder about quickness and foot speed.

Mr Boots is a gas throwing junior in HS?Not sure what O-Line speed measurements are but he is not "slow" or the like. The DH is just the coach's decision. He played first today. And that baseball team is pretty good - multiple JUCO and college players on it. Ryan is as hard a worker as there is and an awesome kid. Also on O-Line being smarter in general, he sure is that. He also knows he needs to work his butt off and learn - he is willing to do that everyday. Again, absolutely great kid.
** Full disclosure my son Jed is a JR pitcher on the team. For those that remember "Mr. Boots" from his going to spring games etc. 15 years ago - he is now a 195 lb 6'3" 17 year old kid throwing in the mid to upper 80s! Time flies.
**EDIT - Just realized my picture is Jed golfing at 5 years old. Didn't even realize that.
It is good stuff. SU has a top notch robotics program. They had a team that finished 8th of out 48 in a recent college robotics competition.Kisselstein is a top student at Corcoran who plans to major in electrical engineering.
Along with sports, Kisselstein is heavily into robotics. He's part of a four-person Corcoran team that is heading to Louisville, Ky., this week for the VEX Roboticsworld competition.

Crap. I am officially old.
Wasn't JJ Watt a 6'6 Walk on (not saying he'll be JJ Watt)?

Jed has the 'Pro' position in that pic - great follow through. I suspect he is a good golfer to boot.
