YES AND NO!!! COACHES HAVE ALOT TO DO WITH IT!! I MEAN IF A KID WHO IS A FRESHAMN. . WANTS TO PLAY RUNNING BACK BUT IS 6'1 265 AND DOESNT REALLY QUITE HAVE THE SPEED/CORDINATION YET. .WILL BE FORCED TO PLAY ON THE D LINE OR SOMWHERE ELSE. . IF HE WOULDA PLAYED WHERE HE WANTED TO PLAY BY THE TIME SENIOR ROLLED AROUND AND WAS DEDICATED ENOUGH. . WE WOULDA GOT HIS WEIGHT AROUND 225 AND NOW U GOT A 6'1 225 LEGIT D-1 RUNNING BACK. . AND NOT A 6'1 265 DLINEMEN WHO WOULD STILL BE UNDERSIZED AT THE D-1 LEVEL! I'm no college football guru, but I don't think you will find too many D1 RBs that are 6'1, 225lbs. |

They don't have the luxury of going out and recruiting certain players. So naturally, the more athletic players gravitate to the key positions. That is why you often see a HS QBs that make the transition to WR in college. For example, Roberto Garza was a defensive end in HS, then he made the transition to OL in college. Although a little bit more rare, you even see players drafted in the NFL that make the trasnition to new positions. (i.e. LB to defensive ends, etc.) |

I see the point you're trying to make, but it is pale in comparison to a much larger discrepancy, flaw, injustice or whatever you want to call it. The thing is mis-positioned (if that's a word) athletes occur everywhere... (think of the non-football states). |

well a coach has to put his best team on the field, and usually he doesnt have the option of putting the 6'1 265 at RB, because he would probably the biggest guy on the team, when he could have him on the line blocking for someone who could get more yards
if coaches went by everyone's potential to gain speed/coordination and lose 40 pounds, then they would be dissapointed most of the time

Only 20 pounds... sounds more like a hit and miss. Besides, I betch the average d1 RB is about 5'10 and about 200... those boys you pointed out must be the rare instance. |

how was i shown up? u were wrong and i proved u wrong. .i was wrong and u proved me wrong!
the ee was jus a low blow! yea im a loser. . good one. .!
my point was and is. . for example:
san benito had a d-end last year. .i belive his name was amaro. . if he would of played for example linebacker instead of d-end. . would he of have gotten more d-1 offers?
or for example if rivas had played wide reciever or corner back would he had gotten more d-1 offers?
or for example tanguma. . if he played d-end or even d tackle. .would he get more offers than as a tight end?

On the contrary, there are far greater reason why people don't get recruited besides the position they play.
1) Past let-downs
2) Mexican-Mentality (miss family, RGV, pregnant GFs)
3) Lack of support from Coaches/Media (you're wrong, even the good ones got to shake their tailfeather to sell their product)

most coaches don't know how to make themselves a solid rb from a smallish d-linemen or big linebacker. so they just put them where they think they should go and leave it alone...

Believe me Midvalleyftball79, you won't find good highlight reels of running back alex trevino from mercedes against Edcouch-Elsa. Youtube..... Edcouch-Elsa versus A.Trevino. NO WAY!!!! Maybe Mercedes against Valley View, NOT EVEN as well. Try junior high or pee wee football midvalleyftball79. c yeah Go back to sleep you freakin homer, every post on here from a Mercedes poster has been positive when it comes to Tanguma, so why is it that you insist on coming in here and taking your shot at Alex. Your pathetic. Take a page out of some of the other EE posters who know how to give credit where credit is due and study it. |
