Im sorry, there is no way. I know high school teams in Georgia where im from where he cant play because of the competition, and the size of high school players in the south..
I was the smallest on my team in height and weight during my playing days as a corner. ( 5'8 165 lbs in my senior year in high school as a starter ) I have gained 12 lbs of muscle since 7 years ago in which I now tip the scale at 5'8 177 lbs, and would still be considered small even playing high school ball in Atlanta, where kids now these days just keep getting bigger and bigger.. -
Never say never but his body won't be able to take the constant punishment at RB. 4'9 130 pounds? The height is not the big issue its the weight. And at that frame he doesn't have much room to pack on much more muscle. Doesn't matter how much the guy benches or squats or whatever he is gonna walk away with some serious injuries. Gotta love his heart though and i wish him the best and that he walks away with his health.Comment

Its like Shaw said below my first post, its not a players height, but the weight... He is too small.. he is smaller than pop warner kids.. at 130 he will have a season ending injury as soon as someobe tackles and falls on him.. cracked ribs, etc.. bones are wayyyy to small. I hate to dou t people, and i hate myself right now for doubting the guy... But its just no way he can play college football, especially RB at 130 lbs..Comment

Read this story just a few seconds ago on yahoo's home page.
Honestly, size really doesn't matter at RB(I played RB for yrs before I injured my knee. Central Michigan was gonna give me a scholarship before the injury. I'm 5'4 135ibs).
You can go far in sports based on skill not height, but he wont go no farther than where he is at. A pro team wont be interested. Shortest pro RB is 5'6(Sporles or Jones-Drew).
Best of luck to him, eyes will be one him if Rice give him play time Saturday.sigpic

- Anthems and Protests --- While we certainly understand the frustration by fans on all sides of the discussion, we have decided to keep the Broncos Country message boards separate from politics. Recent events have brought the NFL to the forefront of political debates, but due to the highly emotional and passionate discussion it tends to involve, we think it’s best to continue to keep politics and this forum separate. Yes, the forum is meant for discussion, but we’d like to keep that discussion to football as much as possible. With everything going on in our country, it would be nice to keep our complaints and cheers purely related to football here. If you feel passionately, there are plenty of other outlets available to you to express your opinions. We know this isn’t the most popular decision, but we ask that you respect it. Thank you for understanding. --Broncos Country Message Board Staff
