Ive never played football before. In senior year of high school. Want to play D3 Football.?

Question

I'm 5'11, 180 pounds, want to play free safety, never played b4, should i play wide receiver instead? Any input?

Answer 1

After not playing in high school (Junior Year) there is not much hope to play in college. although they do take walk-ons if they are good enough.  

Answer 2

ya.. i ur football team is any good then you probably wont make it: or you will and you just will sit on the bench az you are a senior. Good Luck

Answer 3

Go out for your high school team.  Tell the coach what you are interested in playing, and from there they will tell you what you should play based on your atheletic skills and ability.

Answer 4

It wouldn't hurt to try out (actually it might), but you aren't likely to make it onto a college team without any experience playing. Even at the division 3 level, all of the guys recruited for the team are going to have been among the top players on their high school teams and most will have played all 4 years of HS, if not longer.

Answer 5

Free Safety and Wide Receiver Are Both Speed Positions, Wide Receiver is easier if your faster then your defender, but Safety is easier if you can follow a QBs Movements ( When He Throws The Ball), and getting to that spot fast enough to make a hit or an interception, the choice is really yours. If you have the speed for Free Safety, I say go for it.

Well If Your Serious about wanting to play football, discuss it with your parents, because if you ever get injured in a game and your parents find out, your gonna be in a worse situation.
