A Quote by Channing Frye

You get drafted on potential. — © Channing Frye
You get drafted on potential.
I expected to get drafted. I knew that I wouldn't get drafted on that first day due to the fact that not a lot of people had the opportunity to see me play much.
I'm not really too focused on where I get drafted. It's what I do after I get drafted.
I didn't get drafted to sit out. I got drafted to play.
To put it better, we believe the radar gun will get you drafted, but you have to pitch to get to the big leagues. Tools will get you drafted, but you have to be able to play to get to the big leagues.
You think about when I went to Miami. I played as a freshman, I go in and compete to be a starter, I tear my ACL. Come back, I start, I get off to a good couple of games and I get hurt again. You hear everybody saying, 'Oh, he's done.' I get drafted in the third round. People still said I got drafted too high, saying I'll only play three years.
Being drafted 13 definitely motivates me, but I love where I was drafted, I love the opportunity I was drafted into. But the 12 guys ahead of me are in the back of my head all the time.
Prove to them people that you should have gotten picked earlier, and then you make your money. The privilege is just getting drafted, and once you get picked, prove to them that you were supposed to be drafted.
It's possible that in the future, women could be drafted not only into the military... but actually drafted into combat. I'm very uncomfortable with that.
I remember players talking to Willie Brown in my presence. Receivers asking, 'Is this who you drafted? I can't believe this is who you drafted.' I was hearing it from my defensive backs: 'Man, you got a long way to go.'
The United States, you know, people - one of the reasons that it is said that native people received citizenship in 1924 was so that they could be drafted. And they have been extensively drafted.
Are you living up to your potential? God made you with potential - potential for greatness! If you do what you can do, and trust Him to do what you can't, you will grow into the person He gave you the potential to be!
If they don't board and live by themselves, even in their second year they've got no lounge or kitchen table and it's a pretty lonely existence when you get home to an empty house. Homesickness is a key issue for kids who are drafted interstate, whether they are going to Melbourne or coming to Perth or going to Brisbane. All the kids we've drafted this year will all go through periods of homesickness, which can lead to worse things.
It doesn't matter where you get drafted.
In the younger ages, maybe you can rely more on your talent, but when you get older, you see that when you combine it with hard work, you can get everything out of your potential, and that's what I'm striving to do - to get everything out of my potential.
That's a special time, to get drafted.
You want to be drafted high, but to be drafted high into an organization like the Kansas City Chiefs, it's like a dream to me.
