do 13 year old football players get recruited into college?

Question

thanx. my son said that there was recruits at his recent football game

Answer 1

WHAT IS YOU TALKING ABOUT?
13 YEAR OLD KIDS ARE WEAK AND SLOW COMPARED TO COLLEGE PLAYERS

Answer 2

They can recruit early if there is an especially good player there, most of the schools that are there are cupcake schools trying to get good players to go sign on to there school early. For example, this is not football but anyway, Tina Charles(Gatorade High School Female Athlete of the Year) was recruited when she was "8" by a community college near where she lived. She ended up going to UCONN but you get my point. Yes, people are recruited early.

Answer 3

I don't think a college recruiter would go to a Junior high football game. Unless there was a specimen of a kid who was say 6'5 225, ran a 4.4 40 and could throw the ball 70 yards. Other than that I highly doubt it.

Answer 4

At 13 they haven't played a down of HS football...it's more likely for basketball or baseball rather than football....also they really haven't physically developed so no one knows if they'll be too tall or short, fat or skinny...

Answer 5

if colleges get word that there is an extraordinary athlete at a school they will watch them over the years to see if they get better. its very rare but it does happen every now and then

Answer 6

their are at many games...the scouts like to look at players potential early...i read an article saying that 70% of today's NFL players played pee-wee football. So they do scout early..

Answer 7

The flame on his pant leg is still an inferno

Answer 8

if they are ridiculously good. wake forest offered chris leak a full ride when he was in 8th grade

Answer 9

depends on good he is, they wont "recruit" him but if he's really really good, almost exceptional they will watch him all through high school

Answer 10

nope
