A Snowball Chance in H*ll?

**boarder034** · 10-01-2007, 05:00 PM

Okay so i found out i m not getting shipped out because i failed some shit o well, so im going to college, but i really want to play college ball, i didnt play my senior year, but i was a starter both ways since i was a fresman...but i know i need to put on some size and some days im so amped to try and do it, but walking on is so rare, and is so un organized...and i get all depressed....about the shit...i was just wondering if anyone actually thought i had a chance, i mean i run a 4.6...and im about 6 foot 2, 200 pounds....i mean my first game as a freshman, i had 2 interceptions 1 for a tuchdown, 2 sacks, like 10 tackles, and 100 rushing yards...so im not great but im okay anyone think i got a shot?

Only you can decide if you have a shot. You have to have the right attitude and just go out and do it.

buddy without game films, none of that means anything

its all up to you whether you have a shot. you gotta put the time in. talk to the coach. let him know you wanna work.

If i were to tell you that you didn't have a shot would you listen to me ?

wondering what it was that you failed? i'm just wondering, you dont need top answer.

its super hard to walk onto any D1 team although if u have enough talent it can be done walking onto a D2 team would be a little bit easier but still hard as hell i would try to talk to different coachs and see if u can get into walkon tryouts

good luck and here's a little rule to live by the rest of your life:

You will be able to do ANTHING you are willing to sacrifice everything for. If you put 15000% into improving yourself and dedicating your life to the game you would have no problem.. the question you need to ask is: "Am I willing to do what it takes to have a chance?"

no chance.....i got cut from a d1 school kicking 50 yard field goals 90% with no highschool exp. Another buddy of mine got cut at 5'10-11, 4.5 40, 225lb bench 26 reps and a 36inch vert. To play college ball you need to get selected out of highschool. Your mind is way to unsure. Sorry but the truth might hurt.

untrue i have a buddy who walked onto a d1 team however he was one of the best athletes ive ever seen its rare and few and far inbetween but its not impossible

Umm...certain schools have certain policies regarding cuts and what not, but most D1 squads will put you on the practice squad for a walk on before proving u can play. It's all about performance and how hard you wanna work...dont listen to the haters

im sure i can find some of my videos around onlien somewhere for some proof...i have all my games recorded, and i mean i had a scholarship as a sophmore to go to this huge ass private school fregin cost 42k a year to go to, HS! But i was dumb and turned it down, and now that coach teaches college ball! that would would have really improved my chances having a college level coach vouchin for me, i just think if i go somewhere nad i just get the slightest chance ill make it, because the amount of effort i put out on the football field, i cant explain i love the damn game so much that when im out there , im 10x stronger or faster then i am when i work out...

**unclemoney** · 10-02-2007, 11:53 AM

You gota have the mindset that you can make it! I believe in going ALL OUT or NOTHING!

**bigboy003** · 10-02-2007, 09:14 PM

well as a college athlete myself it just comes down to your instincts... the college game is much faster than HS... but if you really want to play somewhere (maybe not USC, Texas, or Florida) you can....
