Question
Hey I'm currently 5'11 160 going into 8th grade. This is my 7th year of football, im a hard hitter and captain of the MS team. Is there any chance I could go on and play on a college level with my size?

Answer
Jason, hello!

You have a lot of time to grow and even if you do not sprout up in height, you can still develop your skills so your height will not be a factor.  You may hit the 11th grade before your size changes but you need to keep your workout regimen.  Your growth is coming!!
