ParticipantCasca in the sports blogosphere this is a phenomenon taking grass roots. A bunch of bloggers are trying to get people to vote for him as a write-in candidate at ESPN. If ESPN’s vote tally is automated he’ll show up.
Also he struck a heisman posse yesterday when visiting with Mack Brown and the Longhorns.

ParticipantAllen our kids (meaning the school) all workout with Doug Hix and crew. Brandon Chillar (from Carlsbad High) is one of his clients and thus why the kids all saw him working out all summer. If you go to his Wikipedia page you’ll see his measureables which are pretty damn good for a white/east Indian boy. On a 6’3″ 240+ frame a 36 inch vertical (translates to power Brian).
The thing to remember about NFL guys Brian is that they are athletic freaks of nature. Not your normal human being. Everything they do is faster than just about anyone else. The only way Chillar can get to the edge to stop the outside sweep with a running back who’s likely a sub 11.0 100M dash is with speed. If anything I see more fast white kids than I’ve seen in a long time. His 40 time is listed at 4.71 on a frame that is pretty good sized, and there are running backs that size and weight probably running in the 4.4-4.5 range.
Tennis on the other hand does not require athletic freaks. You must have technique to the nth degree to compete at high levels. Athleticism won’t hurt you, it will only help, but it’s not the determining factor whether a player makes it to the top. Much like baseball, at the end of the day, it’s really about how well you can hit a moving target. Baseball they like prospects to be about a 7.0 in the 60 yard dash, which is above average but not blazing, and the really fast guys are down in the 6.3-6.4 range, while some 1B/P types who can rake can be above 7.0. As an aside I consider myself to be extremely knowledgeable about the baseball swing, and I use a Rafael Nadal clip with some of my hitters to show them how to thrust from the back hip.
Nothing wrong with the sports you played, because it’s likely kept you more active. I was a strictly baseball/basketball/football type kid and when the glory was gone I kind of let myself go (after military anyway). So your sports were good too, I just want you to be aware that the color thing is overblown. The Williams sisters have been on the scene for what seems like 10 years, where are the new kids?
Oops got side-tracked Allen. I do not know the guy you are asking about, Dan Basket and google isn’t helping. I actually live in Carlsbad now. I’ve been thinking of taking my kids to the guy at Athlete’s Edge (Vista/Carlsbad area) for some “technique”, as both seem to have a poor lean as they sprint. I am fine with Doug Hix crew for the strength and agility, but I think mine could stand a couple of individual lessons (maybe 3-4) on better mechanics. Not something my far arse can demonstrate. I can’t find anything by that name online, but I’d be interested if you use him on how good he is.
