Question
hello, i played in high school AA football, i was also a state runner in track for the 400. but i want to play football for a college somewhere. ive been working out religiously and i am the perfect size for a corner back. do i need to find a walk on  college, if so do they give scholarships?

Answer
James, hello!

You may or may not get a scholarship, but you can walk on for a tryout.  They may award the scholarship in your second year.  What state and/or what school do you seek to get your education from?  Write or call that school directly to see if and when you can get an opportunity.  

Let me know how I can help.

Have a great 2008.
