Tezeno was not huge but he was definitley not small ! He was big enough to play D1 ball. You must be thinkin of Kevin smith, he was on the same team and he was 100 an nothing.... but he could play too.
Zeno was probably 170 or 180 his Sr. year.
Lets hear it from one of his x coaches. Foreman or T would know in a heartbeat.
In fact I think kids should play soccer instead of flag, then when they try out for football they will understand its a different sport.
( I am not a soccer fan but its great for speed and footwork)
But flag football is not the same game that your taking your kids to see on Friday night !

I think they start at 7 or 8 years old and thats about right for most kids.
As far as baseball goes........Its the same !
If they are on the right track they should always hit off a tee as well as live arm. I am not a big fan of the machine but it will throw strikes.
The game of baseball gradually picks up as the kids mature.
But flag football and tackle are two differnt sports in my opinion.
Flag is like touch, but in TACKLE...... next thing you know somebodys got a busted mouth or a broke leg
I actually prefer offense. It is a great feeling to run over defenders and score TDs.
There was this one guy I remember who could really punish defenses, .................. Earl Campbell
Never witnessed anything like it in my life. Saw him play UH his senior year at Texas and couldn't believe what I was seeing. It looked like a grown man was playing against a group of kids. They could not tackle him !
MY GOSH !
They have never lost a game since pee wee and now they are playing their first varsity season !
Why should they even play the game, just go ahead and give them the
TX 4A STATE CHAMPIONSHIP TROPHY
The coaches ultimately define winning programs.
Great coaches know how to build winners out of average athletes.
But it never hurts to have a few hosses !
