Originally posted by shortcircuitI can match that. I dont remember my height and weight in eighth grade but i have only grown a minute amount if at all since the summer of seventh grade. I was 6' 3/4" and 230 lbs my freshman year (i remember this year because we took measurements in intro to weight lifting) ... So you are correct, if they are expecting him to grow into a specific role then they are taking a big gamble as I know from experience that growing isnt a guarantee just because he is young.

This is just dumb....although I haven't seen too many 8th graders who are 6'1" and 215 lbs.
