Frazier & Austin Meadows were rivals in high school and were drafted 5th and 9th overall in the 2013 Draft. My oldest nephew was a classmate of Meadows, so I got caught up in their possible successes.
Austin Meadows had some success in the Bigs, but developed anxiety from the pressure to continue at that level and is now out of the Game.
Sad to see both fail to reach the heights that were expected of them, but, hopefully, they will be happier away from all that attention and glitter.
Austin's younger brother, Parker, continues playing for Detroit where, for a very short time, he was reunited with his brother.
