The QB battle that unlocked Patrick Mahomes
The QB battle that unlocked Patrick Mahomes
Ryan Hockensmith THE SUMMER BEFORE SEVENTH GRADE, Patrick Mahomes got summoned to the Whitehouse High School football field for a special workout. It wasn't quite a secret. But let's just say the coaching staff in East Texas definitely didn't advertise it to the other 10 to 15 middle school kids who wanted to be Whitehouse's quarterback when they grew up. The coaches did invite one other kid. The varsity's offensive coordinator, Reno Moore, was running the workout that day and asked fellow seventh-grader Ryan Cheatham to come out, too. Moore had heard hype about both kids, and he wanted to get a quick assessment of what the buzz was all about. Mahomes was a star pitcher in the Tyler area, the son of an MLB player. Cheatham was just as good as a pitcher. Together, they were the one-two punch that led Tyler's junior baseball team (ages 13-14) to the U.S. title at the 2010 Junior League Baseball World Series.....

Okay, but as fair warning I'll be holding a torch.

I've never been around anyone who became a pro athlete. It would be interesting to honestly hear whether people who have that exposure knew, or if it was just "Hey, Patrick's pretty good." If you went to high school with Derrick Thomas, did you see that he had an elite first step? Did Kelce's classmates say, "Wow, that guy's headed for the Hall of Fame"? In basketball you have a few guys who are obviously going pro quickly and everyone knows it. But in football, the pros are years away when you're a high school kid.
