Being 16 and squating at 6'8 isn't very easy, especially when you consider that more than likely he has been growing rapidly since age 11 to reach that size. Give him another year or 2 in his 6'8 frame and then judge.

All I'm saying is he's weak now. I'm sure he'll be fine by sr year.

OK then was was the point of rambling aimlessly about how weak he is? I'm sure you weren't the incredible hulk when you were a soph. in high school.

Yo do realize that it's harder for a tall person to do a correct squat, right? Add to the fact that the kid is probably only 15, and it makes sense.

Well that explains it. Short people can squat a hell of a lot more than tall ones.

Football

Why all the arguing and changing the subject on most threads in here? Everytime someone post something including myself. Many people have to call others names and shoot down their opinions. Everyone in here has the right to their opinion. If, you don't agree with it, fine. Why not go to another thread?

First of all, it is easier for shorter people to squat more. Secondly, no one on here cares what anyone else squatted back in the day. And last, football is a whole different animal than baseball. There are plenty of stud baseball players who can't squat much.

The thread is really irrelevant anyway. This kid may not be playing football in another year or two. Maybe he will change to baseball.....LOL. How about talking about something that will probably affect our season in 2009?
