Well lets see! In our major team sports only about 1 out of every 1000 HS athletes will make it to the NFL, NBA or MLB. So I would say it is nothing more then a dream. The goal should be to possess the talent and skill to play at a level beyond HS, in which I would strongly recommend sports camps and academies over and above HS and club ball. Competent coaching is everything when it comes to kids and skill development.

A good amount of talent plus an AAU coach with a major Nike or UA sponsorship with solid connections to Nike or UA colleges.
