Nick … How tall are you? What kind of physical frame (thick, normal, thin) do you have? For example, I’ve always had a point guard’s frame. At 6’1” I had trouble getting above 180 as an athlete. My son is 6’2”. He has the same frame. He couldn’t get above 175 until college. He got to 195. But he felt more comfortable at 190. How tall is his mother? I’m not going to be rude and ask about her frame.

The thing about being undersized when thinking D1 is they have so many regular or above average players to choose from. When a player is undersized he has to excel to be noticed. It’s more likely to occur competing with potential D3 players. Besides. Unless a kid had the potential to go pro he should be looking for the best education regardless of division.

My kids did go on to play D1 ball. My son was told he was a potential pro prospect was he was sixteen by people who make those decisions for a living. I still held my ground the college decision would new 70% academic and 30% athletic.
