A coworker/friend is convinced he possesses an NFL quality leg, and wants to pursue the following:
- Quit work.
- Get a partial scholarship to an NAIA school (he has exhausted his NCAA eligibility). Pursue an advanced degree.
- Kick for two years to develop more consistent form.
- Get drafted or audition for NFL teams.
I wonder if his parents still claim him on their taxes, as being "mentally deficient".
Additionally, if he were to somehow beat unthinkable odds and succeed, wouldn't 4-5 years of kicking for $300K put him right back where he started? He'd have to find a normal job once he finished.

Um.... I knew a guy who kicked for Missouri for 3 years. He was kicking for the arena league, last I heard. No NFL tryouts.
Bottom line- if he couldn't kick Div I when he was in school, he shouldn't bother.
