lownslowav8r No. 1 Share Posted August 3, 2022 Blurb: The quarterback. It’s the most hyped, most intensely scrutinized and highest paid position in sports. And once a high school prospect is labeled a 5-Star QB, his life path changes forever. Some were only 16 when they got a title they never asked for, and the pressures were enormous. What had they done? They had fallen in love with American football, and their talent and drive had made them household names. Some found great success on the field; some didn’t. Yet all share one core experience: the football world told them what their life path was destined to be, and whether they were a success or a failure. But the fact is: each QB is much more than his star ranking, and much more than a prediction. 5-STAR QB is unlike any book you’ll ever read, as it takes you inside the minds, the lives, and the moment-by-moment experiences of more than 50 quarterbacks, in their own words. In addition, each chapter has advice from notable Ambassadors of the Game that is layered with a wisdom that will enrich the lives of any recruit, parent, or fan of football. https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0B7QP7V99?&linkCode=sl1&tag=johncanzanobf-20&linkId=6fcfd90d1cff34ce70ee796254eb011d&language=en_US&ref_=as_li_ss_tl 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Duck 1972 No. 2 Share Posted August 3, 2022 You can probably say the same about any of the 5* or even 4* position players. They are all probably the best player on their teams and have been for quite a while. The amount of pressure and rewards these kids go through and how they deal with it all have some doing better some worse. Without a grounding influence in their lives it has to be a terrible burden. I remember the movie "Friday Night Lights" and the running back who hurts his knee. How lost he was and also his uncle who had put everything into the success of the kid being the next greatest RB. It still chokes me up remembering it. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
