<p>Well I play high school football and obviously am not good enough to play D1 , but is there a league I can play for in college instead of intamurals flag football cause that wouldnt feel da seem as high school football. Any input will be welcome.</p>
<p>Well, depedns on what school you go to</p>
<p>D3 or D2 is a possibility, you can just try out.</p>
<p>is there intamurals for tackle football for D1 schools like UF or USC</p>
<p>Look into whether they have club sports/club football... at least at my school, club is just one level below varsity.</p>
<p>The only school that I know of that has intramural tackle football, where they actually wear pads is Notre Dame.</p>
<p>jr. college?</p>
<p>Is wearing pads a must? You'll certainly be able to find pick-up games at most medium to large colleges. ND is the only school I've ever heard of wearing pads in intra-mural.</p>
<p>Playing pickup games with ur friends is different from playing as a group of football players that go through everything together. Wearing pads and helmets and working out at two days brought that team spirit together. Was just wondering if tackle football was available as a club.</p>
<p>Southern Illinois University-Edwardsville has club football that is tackle football. They travel throughout the Midwest to play other schools. Teammate from high school plays there.</p>
<p>There's also Division III that is much like high school football from what I'm told.</p>
<p>Also, out on the East Coast, there is "Sprint Football" but I think there's only 6 or 7 teams in that league. Army and Navy both have teams in that league. There I believe you must weigh under 160 pounds or something like that.</p>
<p>So how hard will it be to make it as a walk on to a big school like UF. Is it going to be as hard as the movie "Rudy". By the way I'm 5 ft 9, weight 143 and run a 4.8. Played WR and some DB in high school.</p>
<p>With a weight of 143, I am sorry to say you have zero chance of walking on any D1 program, especially Florida. You would have to bulk up tremendously in size and strength.</p>

<p>to play at Florida you would need 2-3 more inches, 50 more pounds of muscle, and probably lose a couple tenths from your 40 time. If you put on 30-40 pounts you might be able to play at the IAA/FCS level.</p>
<p>If you aren't getting recruited by anyone you won't be making a D1 squad.</p>
<p>don't listen to them. go and follow your dreams. who knows maybe your dreams may come true.</p>
<p>is there ne tackle football leagues around gainesville for college players to join</p>
<p>A lot of division 1 programs have a couple walk-ons (meaning on the team, but receive no scholarships and aren't recruited)</p>
<p>Walk-on's almost never actually play in real games, though. Often they're put to use on the "scout team" meaning they might play during practices. Sometimes you see walk-ons out on the field if there's a blowout and the QB is taking a knee. (i.e., seniors who are playing their last season, etc)</p>
