He came here to play FB not BB, he would have played last year. Its near impossible to come back after taking a year off, if you dont expect to be playing and havent practice at all you'd be suprised how fast you can lose your shot. I played basketball for 8 years and I took a year off to concentrate on football, then a year later I decided to play again, it took me until about 1/2 through the season till I was feeling the way I did a year back shooting the ball.
