There are nearly one million high school football players and about 500,000 basketball players. Of that number, about 250 make it to the NFL and about 50 make it to the NBA. Less than 3 percent of college seniors will play one year in a professional sport. The odds of a high school football player making it to the pros at all – let alone having a career – are about 6,000 to 1; the odds for a high school basketball player – 10,000 to 1. Take a hard look at the numbers and think about what will matter in the long run – a college education. Willis Athletics What we do to prepare your student – athlete for the future.
