Move forward to 8th grade, they actually pulled him up to the Catholic JV High school team and played there that year. Nothing spectacular playing with kids in 9th and 10grades, but still a good athlete.

Believe it not, he was around 6ft tall at that time and and never got any bigger. Still played ball in various sports, but peaked at time when we were in middle school.

I’d be careful if I was Nick and Les, buying the goods before they’ve fully ripened on the vine

The interesting question is how does he react when it’s not so easy any more and everyone catches up to him.

Damn straight. A kid grows disproportionally to his biological age and dominates the normal kids who are barely out of puberty. Never seen that before.

And the whole 4.55 Forty–Horsehit. I bet if you go to Rivals top 100 there isnt one non lineman listed any worse than 4.5. EVERYBODY runs sub 4.4′s until they get accurately timed at the Combine.

Offering this scholarship is lunacy. It will be a small miracle if hes even good enough to warrant a D1 scholly at all when the time comes.

They divide the teams here by 7th and 8th and have separate schedules. When the 8th grade qb went down, my kid went up to that team to sub for 2 games. Against the best team, he got lit up three times, blindsided on dropback, by a guy at least 50 lbs heavier.

I thought my wife was gonna throw up but I did just kinda laugh a little.

God I am glad football season is over and put a stake in the heart of that commercial.
