It is an every day occurrence that good athletes show up in high school football with zero experience and become stars. It is nearly impossible for a kid to start playing organized basketball in high school and make the team.

There is a kid in my neighborhood that is an example. He dabbled in a little bit of everything as a young kid, but never really played much of anything with any consistency. He plays on the high school basketball team a little bit, but you can tell his skills are weak and his understanding of the game is lacking. He’s going to play college football.
