"Basketball-only" athletes? PLEASE READ!!!

"NEXT" Wrote:I don't know where you live at but around here its football coaches that influence kids to play only football. I know for a fact that this year a kid was asked to go ahead and have a minor surgery during baskebtall season so he could be ready for spring football practice. This kid is a starter on the freshmen and JV basketball team. Football is not the only sport.........


And odds are not against you, there are 5 times the amount of schools that play basketball D-1(118 football vs 334 basketball) alone, That number grows as you drop level D-II, D-III, NAIA because schools don't have football.

WAKE UP, there is more to life than football.........
Its been my experience that many football coaches love getting basketball players for free safety, wide-outs, tight-ends, etc. but balk when their running backs may be needed as a D stopper for basketball, feel like they are wasting their time and should only be lifting.
