(sure it is a small chance, but the chance could well be 0. And of the 2 NFL players I know, one got into UF on athletics and the other was an full ride academic scholarship for engineering school, he just liked to play football)

I was chatting with a group of guys and one guy from Chicago told us how proud he was that his kid was getting calls from football recruiters, then someone said "isn't your kid in middle school?"
Yep, he was being recruited by high schools...
