IMO it really wouldnt make sense. Because in football, your judged on speed, power, agility, and strength. Basketball is just speed and skill mostly. You need to be in another division in football when you have 80 kids dressing with beards and can bench 315, for instance St. Xavier. Imagine taking them to play Phelps or Betsy Layne? In basketball they cant really steamroll you without a foul call and after 5 their gone. So with an average of 14 players per team on a non-heavy contact sport, it really doesnt matter.

Make sense?
