As a former High School coach, this kid will not be a pro player and probably won’t be a very good High School player.

He is too heavy at an early age. His body is still developing and should not be supporting that weight. He will likely have knee issues early on in his career.

Fair cop; I hadn't thought far enough along those lines, obviously.

Reading the story at first (which had no picture of the kid in question; I had to scare that up myself), I wondered if he might possibly be acromegalic, a la the late "Andre the Giant"... but the facial features don't look even remotely distorted enough for that. (No bony eyebrow ridge; jaw isn't distended; etc.) That's about as far as my layman's knowledge of such things can possibly take me, really. ;)
