I have distinctions like i said i eat different things for dinner and i only make the same breakfast because it has become an almost ritual. I am just a very regimented person. I started lifting at age 13 and have done so religiously. i just enjoy the competition. I mean the only like solid part of my meal is the whey, and my pasta snacks. My numbers aren't even the best in my league (which is hyper competitive). Like for example on one team !5! kids went division one. Thats a very good percentage of starters. As i said i am a better defensive player and i want to play outside linebacker. I will be hitting running backs like your friend so im gonna need a little more heft. Thanks for all the tips, help. And i agree swimming doesnt improve my squat. It does improve my cardiovascular though and i believe it assisted my 40 time (which one coach told me was my strong point) Just for the record to be a GOOD d1 receiver i have been informed by University of marylands strength and conditioning coach, wake forest, uc california, and navys coaches ill need at least a 4.4!!!!

(for a taste of my league look up the name of jelani jenkins, i took that boy straight up and uh...... got wrecked) You can also look up the name Brian Westbrook, both went to top schools in my confrence.

I would like to see videos of the squats! I like impressive lifts helps my own game!

OK then yea 187 is small for a line backer.

Brian Westbrook of the Eageles?

As for the last comment bout the 40 time. That is straight up bull. Idk if the coaches were listening to you or what but the 4.4 40 is the most overinflated stat there is and anyone college coach should know that. Maybe thats why the State of Texas crushes skulls in college football.

The fastest reciver at the NFL combine clocked in at 4.3 with MANY of the guys clocking in at 4.5-6. I don't understand those comments brotha. Coaches were always more intrested in tape than paper.

They may think you're inflating so IDK.

For D1, aren't most OLBs around 220-230lbs? Granted, you have some time to bulk up, especially if you redshirt the first year. Any experience as a safety? If you want to play defense, that might be your spot until you can get the weight on.

Tech has a guy playing OLB who is 6-3 207. He'd be at the light end of the spectrum but it wouldn't be to much of a stretch. But yes S looks like a better fit for our friend.

Yeah i meant brian westbrook of the eagles.

Nah i am more than happy with my forty time and im not really feeling the receiver spot anymore. Sure ill try to get some tape. i think my friend has a video of an older player doing like 500-something (the bar bends) so ill try to get that.

Well i mean someone said i should not look at bulking for swimming. Yeah im really losing interest in swimming it just doesn't hold the same appeal anymore. Ill switch to safety if i Have to but id rather not. I mean im only a junior in high school. I still have one more year of high school football and then lets be honest ill have a year to bulk up my college frosh year (i definitely wont be playing d1 football as a freshman). I hate switching positions, my freshman year i was a d lineman then an inside linebacker. My sophomore year i was a linebacker and our strong safety. I finally just asked my coach for outside linebacker and its been a good match for me.

Oh i don't think the coaches were disbelieving of my numbers. I did an official combines so my numbers are all legit, i really think they were trying to intimidate me to improve in any way i can. and i have plenty of gametape out and sent to coaches who asked for it.

Oh and didn't Michael crabtree (of Texas tech) get something crazy like a 4.34? I also believe calving Johnson got like somewhere near there (these are the best of the best however.

The answer is in the title. Make sure you drink a lot of water or you won't poo for a week.

Crabtree didn't run.....And he was excpected to get a 4.5 tops.

http://www.nfl.com/combine/top-performers Those are the times for all the guys. You would be the second fastest LB in the NFL combine this year.

Honestly with your stats you should be on Rivals lol. But srsly you have a NFL type saftey body. Already.

You are GOOD at football right

Oh duh of course im good (not to sound inflated). i have been getting calls from d1 coaches. I do think they want me to switch to safety but i really dont want to. Im just not that good at the spot. id rather play d2 linebacker than d1 safety (may sound weird but its true). when coaches call me they say they like the form they saw on the film. My cousin was a division 2 player and he ran a 4.5???? I have a kid on my team, hes pretty small but he ran a 4.51 and hes only a sophmore. i dont know i cant argue with your records but i know ive seen faster times than that. see the thing is i think i may lose a little speed off my 40 with the weight increase. yeah i know about as long as its muscle blah blah blah, but thats a pretty sudden weight gain over a couple of months and i think ill be a little awkward. Oh and correction i got retimed for the 40 by my coach and i only got a 4.6 We ran it 4 times too so i think the first time was a lucky fluke (maybe a good start which ive literally seen shave a second off your time)

Do you play in Baltimore County? Or Annapolis?

Just curious. I played football & lacrosse at Archbishop Spalding in the Catholic League and you are mentioning U of M and Navy so it makes me wonder.
