He's wanting to stay low profile for now in case it doesn't pan out but it'll cause shock waves if it does.

He's got a long road ahead of him. I decided the same thing back in 2003 and still have a long way to go.

He wants to keep his comeback under wraps in case it doesn't pan out. He was pretty successful in college and doesn't want to tarnish his rep if he trains and can't jump 15'. It was too interesting of a story so a couple of mods on this board convinced him to blog about it.
Personally, if anybody can come back, it's this guy. Think Dave Volz coming back in '92 after years off to equal his PR and make the OG team.

So Simon, are you thinking of trying a comeback, too?

Jacob Davis? Brian Hunter?

One of those could possibly be right or not. Great guesses.

Gotta be Davis.....Hunter made a half assed attempt at a comeback last year, so I am betting on Jacob. That would be fun to see.

Just stay encouraging to whoever it is. If hes worried about not jumping well and forming a bad rep... just let him know that once a stud, always a stud in the vault. I dont know who it is, but i really respect you following your dream and i admire it!

Hey guys!
Thanks for all the support so far. Sorry about all the secrecy,but I don't really want any sort of attention in case I fall flat on my face! I'm encouraged by my start so far, but hopefully I won't do anything stupid to hinder my progress.
