Its gonna be alot of ducktales in here.
But I was a highly recruited sophmore/junior year in football. Ended up tearing a patella tendon in a dunk contest at a basketball camp(I didnt even like playing b-ball)
I went on to have a mediocre year my senior year i had the "fastest limp in Alabama" but no big schools wanted to offer me. Bama, Auburn and UAB wanted to "grey shirt me or have me walk on because my injury was to risky. I went through depression and all that. Dont know if I would have went pro but I definitly would have went D-1
Exactly what they called me my senior year

I feel ya, I was 6'3 and playing the post. Never really liked it, I was a pretty good shooter and I can handle the ball well but the coach didn't wanna hear it, so I was like f it and my interest dropped.Originally Posted by Beast4ya

same situation....im 6'9 but hated playing post positions....i liked to shoot the ball...
im not clumsy or nothing i just preferred a jump shot over muscling someone in the post (weigh 180)
when i started figuring out that i was never going to be able to play the way i wanted to my interest in basketball dropped....
i could have went D-1 but i hated playing Ball.
still might go to D2 school next year just for a scholarship

I am not going to say that I could have went pro, but if I had the mindset i had now (workout twice a day before and after work 6am and 5 30 pm) and had a coach who gave a damn. It could have been very interesting how far I would have went. A coach who cares and that has good connections is always a gigantic help.
i realize this but after almost a lifetime of dealing with this problemOriginally Posted by DublBagn
Some of the tall cats in here wanting to shoot the rock is all a case of bad timing.....You happen to be the "tall dude" and they needed a big man, but it ended up that you could shoot the rock and you probably should have....in college you are not playing the big post being 6'6 unless you are a beast......horrible coaching FTL....
I played with 2 bothers (2 years apart in age) they were 6'4 and 6'6 and they had the same problem.......
I could have done baseball, college at least, pro baseball is way to hard to make, knees could not stand up to catching in baseball, Playing FB/OLB in football and goalie in hockey.....had some interest into my junior year (mostly because a few dudes were going to pro farm teams) but never worked out......
