[QUOTE="Barbarian Horde, post: 362365, member: 45976"] Given your situation, your best chance will be to get better every year and gain a full understanding of the game while playing in college then...[B][COLOR=black]join a div II/III club after college[/COLOR][/B], [U]excel[/U] there...move up to a div I club, [U]excel[/U] there. If you [U]excel[/U] at the senior div I level in the states, you'll absolutely get attention from talent scouts overseas...but not until then. [B][U]It would be much easier if you were playing div I football as a lineman/linebacker then transition to rugby as a prop or loose forward[/U][/B] after college because you'll still be using the same core skills and you'll have the size/physicality to play high priority positions for rugby union. Given you're size, you'll almost have to wear the no 9, 10 , 11, 14 or 15 jerseys and all of these positions require a very advanced understanding of the game. [/QUOTE]
