Sometimes it can be very easy to forget, that football is sport played by people of vastly different ages, different physical attributes, differnt skills and different thinking abilities.
High School, and obviously Youth Football is played, essentially, by children with some exceptions for those who are older, more physically advanced and extraordinary athletes whereas Intercollegiate Football is played by young ADULTS, who were likely from the upper talent levels of HS or Youth programs.
The ultimate level, NFL, is played by ONLY superior athletes, in the best physical condition who are full grown, committed men who and super talented to reach that level, so it really shouldn't be all that surprising that there would be different skill, talent and comprehension requirements for each progressive level.
Often many of the problems attributed to HS, or Youth football, are caused by totally ridiculous expectations rather than poor performance.
