Growing up, AF had really amazing youth leagues in baseball, basketball, and

football. They had a combined BB league for juniors & seniors with like 12 teams that was super-competitive. Doug Meacham who walked on at the U under Majerus, and has been a HS coach for several years, didn't make the HS team until his senior year when he was scouted out in the rec league.
