Yep. I started for 3 years in HS in 3 different sports, made state teams and went on and played what you might call the minors or prospect games. I had it physically and athletically, but didn't really have the killer instinct, hunger or work ethic, at least not consistently
Other dudes who did and tried harder used to tell me where they'd be at if they had my physical attributes, but a lot of stuff came too easy to me too young; and talent is a dime a dozen. Played with and against and been around plenty of guys who did make the big time.
I don't lose any sleep over it, but if I'd known at 15-18 what I knew at 30+ I'd have done a few things a little differently
