Playing football
I’m currently an underclassman in high school. I had huge aspirations to play in college and maybe d1 as a lineman. I have a solid frame right now 6’3.5 245 after dropping 20 lbs, and played varsity as a freshman. I’d still love to play but I am taking a year off as of now to get stronger and stabilize my back
anyways I was wondering what you guys think about me still pursuing college football with this condition. My pain is pretty severe, and curve is just below surgery level. As I said I’m taking a year off, but I am wondering if its still worth pursuing the rest of football with aspirations of playing college football at a position with very severe and repetitive collisions that load the back.
Honestly after the diagnosis in the winter, I really struggled with everything. Basically constant pain without heavy pain killers and the lack of motivation were terrible, but it’s gotten better thankfully. Do you think after stabilizing for a year and resting and getting stronger, my back would still like “give out” on me?
