[QUOTE="BMan, post: 5865030, member: 2973"] I assume he was asking as a matter of did he have the tools? Even if he did, he had no experience playing at a higher level than other high school programs. He hadn't played against other people who were as large as he was, stronger than he was, faster than he was, more skilled than he was, harder hitting than he was, and used to a much faster, harder game. Adults are much stronger pound-for-pound than teenagers. He may have looked good on paper, but they'd have killed him on the field. I'd say probably career-ending injury within the first half of the season. [/QUOTE]
