Question
Hey my name is Matthew I'm 17 i graduate in 2010 i attend Eagles Landing High in McDonough GA, I play football I'm a wide receiver and I wanted to know what do i need to do to get into college to play football i didn't play this season because of grades, so what do i need to do to play football in college. I planing on playing next year but my grades might hold me back from getting any scholarships.

Answer
Matthew, hello!

I have attached some sites for you to research.  Talk to the counselors and get those grades up or the NCAA will not let you play ball.

If you cannot get into the Division I schools, you can start at Junior College or Division III and transfer later on, but it depends on the degree you seek, plus your playing skill ability.

Take care!
