[Wildcat18]

If the timeframe didn't cause many problems, if I were a coach I would let your son play. That's just me. There a lot of high school coaches in the mountains that don't like their basketball players and to play football and that I feel has hurt their team some. I for one love having some physical football players on my basketball team. Nothing like a 6'2-6'4 - 240-270 kid pushing people around in the middle. I love it. Hope everything works out for your son Wildcat. They are only young once. That FBU does sound amazing.

I don't have any kids involved, just using an example with my opinion. Just feel there is a lot of misinterpretation on this thread. It's not an FBU problem. It's a coaching problem. The basketball vs. football fight is one we see all the time. In this state especially, it being a basketball oriented state. I just don't believe in coaches making middle school kids pick one at that age. Let them do what they want to do and what is best for their families. Dabble in both and then decide later on which route may be the best to take to get your college education paid for.
