<p>I played freshman football in hs and got injured during spring football. I never got back to the game. However, I was hoping to find a place to play in college; I was hoping MIT but was rejected. So, how good is Hopkins football team? Is there anybody out there on the team? I hear that they are DIII; are they competitive? Do sports take up a lot of time at JHU (not counting lax)?
Thanks</p>
<p>Hopkins football is awesome. They were 10-1 2 years ago and won the regional championship. This year at 8-3 was the first year they made the NCAAs but lost in the first round to Theal. They need good players so make sure you come!. I see alot of football players in my bme classes. Doesn't look like that much of a commitment but im sure they do have tough practices.</p>
<p>football is good at Hopkins..albeit DIII, still very competitive. It will be tough to walk on only having freshman HS football experience, but it is possible. Talk to the coaches--find their emails on the website: jhusports.com.</p>
<p>Why not try a few other sports too, like track n field?</p>
<p>Yes! That is very encouraging. From personal experience, were hopkins football players and track athletes superstars in hs?</p>
<p>I agree with PalmBeach that walking-on to the Football team will be difficult as most of the players are supported recruits. It is not impossible -- actually the Men's Lacrosse team even has a walk-on this year. It never hurts to contact the coach in advance.</p>
<p>If DIII Football at Hopkins is not in the cards though there is still intramural sports as well. Or just tossing the football on the Beach during a nice spring day.</p>

<p>Hey, yeah, I was one of those athletes. I'm coming to play next year at Hopkins. Football is still very serious and but people still walk on even up to the I-A level, it's just a matter of how much work you're willing to put into it.</p>
<p>Wait, I don't quite understand you Stinkous. Are you a current walkon or future walkon at JHU? For football?</p>
<p>Nooo, I was one of the recruited athletes to play next year.</p>
