Nyquist played three seasons for the [[Maine Black Bears]] of the [[Hockey East]] in the NCAA. He led the team in points all of his three seasons and was the NCAA regular-season scoring leader in [[2009–10 NCAA Division I men's ice hockey season|2009–10]].<ref>{{cite web | title= HOCKEY EAST ANNOUNCES 2010 ALL-ROOKIE TEAM – League also announces Seven Individual Award Winners -| url=http://www.hockeyeastonline.com/men/presarch/201003/mar17ar.php}}</ref> He left the Black Bears after his junior year by signing a two-year entry-level contract with [[Detroit Red Wings|Detroit]] on 25 March 2011.
Gustav is also known as one of the greats at UMaine, finishing as a Hobey Baker Award finalist.

===Professional===
Nyquist played his first AHL game with the [[Grand Rapids Griffins]] on 25 March 2011 against the [[Texas Stars]]. In his second AHL game on 26 March 2011, also against the Texas Stars, he scored his first AHL goal on a pass from [[Jamie Tardif]].

Gustav played his first [[National Hockey League|NHL]] game with Detroit on November 1, 2011 against the [[Minnesota Wild]].<ref name="NHLdebut" /> He scored his first career NHL goal on a pass from [[Pavel Datsyuk]] on March 26, 2012 against [[Steve Mason (ice hockey)|Steve Mason]] of the [[Columbus Blue Jackets]].<ref>{{cite web | title=Columbus Blue Jackets at Detroit Red Wings game summary | url=http://www.nhl.com/scores/htmlreports/20112012/GS021135.HTM}}</ref>

Prior to week 8 vs [[Detroit Lions|Detroit]], Sherman nicknamed himself [[Optimus Prime]], an action intended to send out the message that he would shut down Detroit's [[wide receiver]], [[Calvin Johnson]], known by his nickname [[Megatron]].

One of these controversies is his ''Optimus Prime'' nickname, referring to [[Calvin Johnson]], who is nicknamed ''Megatron''.<ref>{{cite web|author=Nate Davis|url=http://www.usatoday.com/story/gameon/2012/10/25/optimus-prime-richard-sherman-seahawks-calvin-johnson-megatron/1657505/|title=Megatron ready for Seahawks' Optimus Prime|publisher=''USA Today''|work=Game On!|date=October 25, 2012|accessdate=March 9, 2013}}</ref> Sherman has also been involved in a controversy wherein he asked [[Tom Brady]], "U mad, bro?".<ref name=BradyUMad/> Sherman also stirred controversy with his response to not being selected to the [[2013 Pro Bowl]].<ref name=ProBowl/> In March 2013, Sherman went on to ''[[ESPN First Take]]'', where he argued with [[Skip Bayless]]. Sherman told Bayless "I'm intelligent enough and capable enough to understand that you are an ignorant, pompous, egotistical cretin.

Short Biography

The six-foot-three, 176-pound Swiss Ice hockey defenseman, Mirco Müller, like his hockey peers, was very happy when he was selected by Everett Silvertips, the 5,238 miles trip from Winterthur, Northern Switzerland, to [[Everett, Washington|Everett]] in North America, was truly a fantastic Western Hockey League (WHL) experience.

“Over the last few years, a couple Swiss players played in North America and they told me how high the playing level is there and I’ve always been interested to play in another country, so I was very happy to be picked by Everett,” said Müller, the 94th in Future Considerations October ranking for the 2013 NHL Draft (the premier professional ice hockey league in the world). <ref name=Mirco>{{cite web|last=Mueller|first=Mirco|title=Future Considerations|url=http://futureconsiderations.ca/muellers-draft-dream-has-swiss-influence/|publisher=Future Considerations|accessdate=15 May 2013}}</ref>

The first Swiss native to be initiated by the Silvertips, Müller, aged 17, was the 11th overall pick in this year’s import draft and the youngest player in uniform as Switzerland’s Under-20 team finished 3-0 against the Czech Republic, Germany and Slovakia in the Summer Challenge tournament in [[Füssen]], Germany. <ref>[http://everettsilvertips.com/article/silvertips-sign-imports-m-ller-soumelidis Everett Silvertips sign imports Müller & Soumelidis]</ref>

Mirco Müller has been included in Team Switzerland for the 2013 IIHF World Junior Championships to be held in [[Ufa]], [[Russia]]. Mueller will take a leave from the Silvertips and join his Swiss teammates for pre-tournament training camps in [[Lenzerheide]] and [[Wetzikon]], Switzerland.

"I'm very excited for the whole experience," said Müller. "Of course it's a huge honor to be selected as an under-ager. I'm looking forward to playing against the best players in junior hockey, especially the Canadians, Americans, Swedes and the other top nations. It's in a new country that I've never been to before and I'm excited to see what it's like over there."<ref>[http://www.juniorhockey.com/news/news_detail.php?news_id=77447 Mueller to Play for Swiss at World Juniors - Junior Hockey News] 7 Dec 2012</ref>

'''Ryan Tannehill''' (born July 27, 1988) is an [[American football]] [[quarterback]] for the [[Miami Dolphins]] of the [[National Football League]] (NFL). He played [[college football]] at [[Texas A&M Aggies football|Texas A&M]]. The Miami Dolphins selected him with the eighth overall pick in the [[2012 NFL Draft]].<ref>{{cite web|last=Lourie|first=Steven|title=Miami Dolphins 2012 Draft Grades|url=http://www.footballfanspot.com/dolphinsdraft2012.htm|date=May 12, 2012|accessdate=September 27, 2012}}</ref>

==Early years==
Tannehill was born in [[Big Spring, Texas]]. He attended [[Big Spring High School]], where he played [[high school football]]. He played 10 games at [[defensive back]] his sophomore season. As a junior, he passed for 1,410 yards and rushed for 822 at quarterback. He took his team to the playoffs as a senior, passing for 1,258 yards and rushing for another 617. He had to miss two games due to a separated shoulder in the second game of his senior year. He also posted three receptions for 62 yards and compiled a 39.2 punt average with a long of 84 yards as a senior. He received second-team District 4-4A honors for both his junior and senior seasons.<ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.aggieathletics.com/sports/m-footbl/mtt/tannehill_ryan00.html|title=Ryan Tannehill, Texas A&M profile|publisher=Texas A&M Athletic Department|accessdate=October 19, 2008}}</ref>

==College career==
===2007 season===
Tannehill [[Redshirt (college sports)|redshirted]] his first season (2007) at A&M.

===2008 season===
{{see also|2008 Texas A&M Aggies football team}}
Prior to Tannehill's second season, [[Mike Sherman]] took over as head coach. In summer camp, Tannehill competed against veteran quarterback [[Stephen McGee]] and redshirt sophomore [[Jerrod Johnson]] for the starting quarterback position. He finished third in the contest, behind Johnson and then McGee. Sherman, whose offense utilizes true receivers, moved him to receiver.

In his fifth game, he posted freshman school records of 210 yards on 12 catches. After his six receptions for 78 yards in the Iowa State game, he broke the freshman school records for receptions and receiving yards.<ref>{{cite news|url=http://www.kbtx.com/sports/headlines/33329739.html|title=Aggie Offense Clicks Against Cyclones|publisher=KBTX|work=Texas A&M Athletics|accessdate=October 26, 2008|date=October 26, 2008}}</ref><ref>{{cite news|url=http://www.dallasnews.com/sharedcontent/dws/spt/stories/1126dnspoamlede.2e3ee89.html|title=Texas A&M's Tannehill takes familiar route}} {{Dead link|date=September 2012}}</ref> Tannehill finished his redshirt freshman season with 844 receiving yards, which was 11 yards shy of breaking [[Robert Ferguson (American football)|Robert Ferguson]]'s record set in 2000.<ref>{{cite news|url=http://www.aggiesports.com/Sports/GAME-DAY-NOTES2008-11-29T15-30-34|title=GAME DAY NOTES}} {{Dead link|date=September 2012}}</ref> He attempted only one pass at quarterback the whole season.<ref name=LO1>{{cite news|author=Adam Zuvanich|url=http://lubbockonline.com/sports-/-red-raiders-/-football/2010-10-31/tannehill-leads-aggies-win-against-red-raiders?v=1288487836|title=Tannehill leads Aggies to win against Red Raiders|publisher=Lubbock Online|date=October 31, 2010|accessdate=September 27, 2012}}</ref>

Tannehill had expressed his desire to become the starting quarterback at A&M: "I still think of myself as a quarterback, I still want to be a quarterback here at A&M. Hopefully that’s the way it turns out. But if things don’t happen that way, and Coach thinks I can better help being a receiver, then I guess I’m okay with that."

==Professional career==
[[File:Ryan Tannehill and Jake Long.jpg|right|thumb|Tannehill and [[Jake Long]].]]
Tannehill ran the 40-yard dash in 4.49 seconds at his pro day. He was considered the #3 quarterback prospect in the [[2012 NFL Draft]] class behind [[Andrew Luck]] and [[Robert Griffin III]].

In the [[2012 NFL Draft]], the Miami Dolphins selected Tannehill with the 8th overall pick.<ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.nfl.com/draft/2012/profiles/ryan-tannehill?id=2532956|title=Ryan Tannehill Draft Profile|publisher=NFL|accessdate=September 27, 2012}}</ref> He was the first quarterback selected by the Dolphins in the first round since [[Dan Marino]] in [[1983 NFL Draft|1983]]. He became the 13th starting quarterback by the Miami Dolphins since Dan Marino and only the 3rd quarterback taken 1st round in franchise history following Hall of famers Bob Gresie and Dan Marino.

{{cquote|"I have him rated as the 19th best player in the draft, which tells you I don't think he's ready to be a heavy contributor this year. I watched every throw he made on tape this year. All the out-breaking routes are phenomenal. Where he gets in trouble are the in-breaking routes where he stares the receiver down, pats the ball and throws interceptions." -[[Mike Mayock]], former NFL safety and current [[NFL Network]] analyst}}

On July 28, 2012, Tannehill signed a four-year contract with the Dolphins worth approximately $12.688 million, with an option for a 5th year, as reported by the [[Miami Herald]].<ref>{{cite web|author=Barry Jackson|url=http://www.miamiherald.com/2012/07/28/2918172/miami-dolphins-ryan-tannehill.html|title=Ryan Tannehill strikes a deal with Miami Dolphins|publisher=The Miami Herald|date=July 28, 2012|accessdate=September 27, 2012}}</ref>

On August 20, 2012, Tannehill was named the starting quarterback for the season opener against the Houston Texans. He will be the 17th starting quarterback since Dan Marino retired.<ref>{{cite web|author=Steven Wine|url=http://sports.yahoo.com/news/tannehill-chosen-dolphins-starting-qb-194756511--nfl.html|title=Tannehill chosen Dolphins' starting QB|publisher=Yahoo! Sports|date=August 20, 2012|accessdate=September 27, 2012}}</ref>

===2012 season===
In week 1 of the 2012 NFL season, Tannehill started his first career regular season game which ended in a 30-10 loss. He finished with 219 yards, zero touchdowns and three interceptions.<ref>{{cite web|author=Erik Frenz|url=http://bleacherreport.com/articles/1329361-miami-dolphins-breaking-down-ryan-tannehills-interceptions|title=Miami Dolphins: Breaking Down Ryan Tannehill's Interceptions|publisher=Bleacher Report|date=September 10, 2012|accessdate=September 27, 2012}}</ref><ref>{{cite web|author=Ben Volin|url=http://blogs.palmbeachpost.com/thedailydolphin/2012/09/26/talking-points-miami-dolphins-will-have-to-live-with-ryan-tannehills-growing-pains/|title=Talking Points: Miami Dolphins will have to live with Ryan Tannehill’s growing pains|publisher=The Palm Beach Post|date=September 26, 2012|accessdate=September 27, 2012}}</ref> Two of his three interceptions were tipped at the line of scrimmage by defensive end [[J. J. Watt]] of the [[Houston Texans]]. In response to Tannehill's performance, [[Joe Philbin]] stated “We’ve (also) got to do a better job in (pass) protection, and at times the receivers have to protect the throw from the quarterback. So I would say, as is usually the case, there is a little bit of culpability across the board.”<ref>{{cite web|author=Brian Biggane|url=http://blogs.palmbeachpost.com/thedailydolphin/2012/09/10/joe-philbin-offense-has-to-share-blame-for-ryan-tannehill-tips/|title=Joe Philbin: Offense has to share blame for Ryan Tannehill tips|publisher=The Palm Beach Post|date=September 10, 2012|accessdate=September 27, 2012}}</ref>

In week 2 of the 2012 NFL season, Tannehill improved dramatically in a 35-13 win over the [[Oakland Raiders]]. Tannehill passed for an even 200 yards, with one touchdown and zero interceptions, as well as 14 yards on the ground to go along with one rushing score. Tannehill seemed to fix his tipped ball problem by having zero passes batted down in week 2.

By the end of week 3, Tannehill had completed less than than 53% of his passes, and also had only 1 touchdown to four interceptions.<ref>{{cite web|author=Ryan Rudnansky|url=http://bleacherreport.com/articles/1349553-reggie-bush-dolphins-have-no-chance-vs-cardinals-without-veteran-rb|title=Reggie Bush: Dolphins Have No Chance vs. Cardinals Without Veteran RB|publisher=Bleacher Report|date=September 26, 2012|accessdate=September 27, 2012}}</ref>

In week 4 against the Arizona Cardinals, Tannehill threw for 431 yards,<ref>{{cite web|author=Erik Frenz|url=http://bleacherreport.com/articles/1353804-breaking-down-ryan-tannehills-breakout-performance-vs-cardinals|title=Breaking Down Ryan Tannehill's Breakout Performance vs. Cardinals|publisher=Bleacher Report|date=October 1, 2012|accessdate=October 2, 2012}}</ref><ref>{{cite web|url=http://articles.sun-sentinel.com/2012-09-30/sports/fl-dolphins-cardinals-1001-20120930_1_ryan-tannehill-dolphins-coach-joe-philbin-dan-carpenter|title=Late interception dooms Ryan Tannehill, Dolphins|publisher=The Sun Sentinel|date=September 30, 2012|accessdate=October 2, 2012}}</ref> surpassing the Dolphins' single-game record for most passing yards by a rookie quarterback, set by Dan Marino in 1983. Tannehill's mark was one yard shy of the NFL's single-game passing-yard record by a rookie quarterback, set by Carolina's Cam Newton in 2011. He threw for 1 touchdown and 2 interceptions.

===Dolphins franchise records===
* Most passing yards for a rookie quarterback in a single game: 431 (vs [[Arizona Cardinals]] 9/30/12)

==Personal Life==
Tannehill graduated with a bachelor's degree in biology in May 2011 and had planned to become an [[orthopedic surgeon]].<ref>{{cite news|url=http://www.chron.com/disp/story.mpl/sports/7262247.html|title=A&M's Sherman mum on who will start at QB vs. Tech|publisher=Chron|date=October 25, 2010|accessdate=September 27, 2012}}</ref> Ryan and his wife Lauren Tannehill, whom he met at Texas A&M, were engaged in May 2011 and were married in Mexico in January of 2012. <ref>{{cite web|last=Chase|first=Chris|title=Ryan Tannehill’s wife was the hit of Thursday’s NFL draft (PHOTOS)|url=http://sports.yahoo.com/blogs/nfl-shutdown-corner/ryan-tannehill-wife-stole-show-thursday-nfl-draft-161434718.html|publisher=Yahoo!

==Plot==

The novel begins with Roland and his ka-tet arriving at a river on their journey to the Dark Tower. An elderly man who operates a ferry gets them across the river, and warns them that a severe storm (Starkblast) is coming, and that they can find shelter in a building a few miles ahead. They reach the shelter just in time, and while they wait out the storm, Roland spins a story to keep them occupied. The story he tells, called the "Skin-Man", depicts Roland as a young gunslinger. His father sends Roland and his friend Jamie DeCurry west to the town of Debaria on a mission to capture the Skin-Man, an apparent shape shifter who terrorizes the town and surrounding areas by transforming into various animals at night and embarking on murderous rampages. Roland and Jamie take a train to Debaria, but it derails before arriving and they must finish their journey on horse. Before arriving at Debaria, they pass through a town known as Serenity, a community of women where Roland's mother lived after suffering a mental breakdown following her affair with Marten. One of the women in this town relays a story of a recent brutal attack conducted by the Skin-Man.

Roland and Jamie arrive in Debaria, and with the help of the local Sheriff, Hugh Peavy, they determine that the Skin-Man is most likely a salt miner from a nearby village. The next morning, they discover that another brutal attack has occured overnight on a local farm. They investigate the scene, and discover a single survivor, a small boy named Bill, who has lost his father in the attack. Bill tells them that he saw the Skin-Man in his human form after the attack, but only glimpsed his feet. He stated that on one ankle the Skin-Man had a tattoo. Roland and Jamie determine that the murderer left the scene on horseback, and Roland sends Jamie to the salt mines to round up every miner who has an ankle tattoo [indicating time spent in a nearby prison] and who is also able to ride a horse. He then brings Bill back to a cell in Sheriff Peavy's jail, as he plans to walk each suspect past Bill in the hopes Bill can identify the Skin-Man, or that the Skin-Man will reveal himself by fleeing due to fear of being identified. While Roland and Bill wait for Jamie to round up the salt miner suspects, Roland tells Bill the story of The Wind Through the Keyhole.

In this story, we meet Tim Ross, a young boy who lives in a forgotten village that fears the annual collection of property taxes by a man named The Covenant Man. Tim recently lost his father, who was killed by a dragon while in the woods chopping trees. After the death of his father, Tim's mother, no longer able to pay the taxes to keep their home, marries his fathers best friend and business partner Bern Kells, who moves in with them. Kells is a mean man prone to heavy drinking who does not treat Tim or his mother well. One day The Covenant Man comes to collect the taxes, and he secretly tells Bill to meet him later in the woods. During this meeting, The Covenant Man reveals to Bill that it was actually Bern Kells who killed his father, not a dragon. During this meeting, Kells beats Tim's mother, causing her to go blind. Later, The Covenant Man sends Tim a vision telling him that if Tim again visits The Covenant Man in the woods, he will give Tim magic that will allow his mother to see again. Tim, armed with a gun given to him by his school teacher, journeys into the woods, and is led into a dangerous swamp by the evil fairy, Armaneeta. Here, Tim almost becomes victim to a dragon and other mysterious swamp creatures, but he is saved by his gun as well as a group of friendly swamp people. The swamp people guide him to the far side of the swamp, and equip him with a small mechanical talking device from the 'Old People' that helps guide him onward in his journey. Eventually, Tim arrives at a Dogan where he finds a caged Tiger, which wears the key to the Dogan around its neck. A Starkblast approaches, and Tim, realizing this is likely a trap set for him by The Covenant Man, befriends the Tiger. Tim and the Tiger ride out the storm under a magical protective blanket. The next morning, Tim discovers that the tiger is actually Maerlyn, a white magician, who had been trapped in the cage for years due to black magic. Mearlyn gives Tim a potion to cure his mother's blindness and sends him back to his mother on the flying magic blanket. Tim then cures his mother's blindness. Tim's mother then kills Bern Kells with an ax after Kells enters their home with the intention of killing them.

This concludes the Wind Through The Keyhole story, and Jamie arrives back in Debaria with the salt mine murder suspects. Young Bill is able to identify the Skin-Man due to his ankle tattoo and an associated scar, at which time the Skin-Man transforms into a snake, and kills two people. Roland shoots the snake, killing it. Roland and Jamie travel back to Serenity, where the women agree to adopt young Bill, who is now an orphan. Roland is also given a note written long ago by his mother. In this note, his mother claims she forgives Roland for his act of accidentally killing her.

This concludes the Skin-Man story and an adult Roland and his ka-tet have now successfully ridden out the Starkblast. They pack up, and continue on their journey to the Dark Tower.

==Publication information==
The book, like its predecessors in the series, contains a number of illustrations. The artwork for this volume is provided by [[Jae Lee]], the main illustrator for [[Marvel Comics]]' adaptations of King's other work, ''[[The Dark Tower (comics)|The Dark Tower]]''. As with the previous three volumes in the series, [[Donald M. Grant, Publisher, Inc.|Grant]] published a limited edition of the novel, followed by a mass market edition by [[Charles Scribner's Sons|Scribner]], which does not contain the illustrations. Grant's limited edition was published in two variants: a traycased Deluxe Edition signed by Stephen King limited to 800 copies, and a slipcased Artist's Edition signed by Jae Lee limited to 5,000.<ref>[https://secure.grantbooks.com/z-sk-dt-twttk.html "Special Announcement"]. Donald M. Grant. May 10, 2011</ref>

===Covers===
Initially, the first cover artwork released for the book was a preliminary cover for the Scribner mass market edition, which was labeled as "not final". It was available at online retailers, such as Amazon, in early September 2011. Later, when the Grant edition was first made available for pre-order on December 19, the covert artwork for the limited edition was revealed, followed by the final cover artwork for the Scribner edition on December 22.<ref name=OfficialSite/>

==Background information==
In an interview in March 2009, King stated, describing an idea for a new short story he recently had: "And then I thought, 'Well, why don't I find three more like this and do a book that would be almost like modern fairy tales?' Then this thing started to add on bits and pieces so I guess it will be a novel." According to King, the idea is a new Dark Tower novel. King said, regarding the Dark Tower series, "It's not really done yet. Those seven books are really sections of one long über-novel."<ref>{{cite web|url=http://whosnews.usaweekend.com/2009/03/stephen-king-not-done-with-his-dark-tower-series|title=Stephen King not done with his 'Dark Tower' series|publisher=[[USA Weekend]]|date=March 18, 2009}}</ref>

While promoting his novel ''[[Under the Dome]]'', King confirmed this during his TimesTalk event at The TimesCenter in [[New York City]] on November 10, 2009, and the next day King's official site posted the information that King will begin working on this novel in about eight months, with a tentative title being ''The Wind Through the Keyhole''.<ref>King, Stephen. [http://www.stephenking.com/news.html "The Wind Through The Keyhole - Letter from Stephen"], stephenking.com, March 10, 2011.</ref>

On December 1, 2009, Stephen King posted a poll on his official website, asking visitors to vote for which book he should write next:
{{bquote|I mentioned two potential projects while I was on the road, one a new [[All-World|Mid-World]] book (not directly about [[Roland Deschain]], but yes, he and his friend [[Cuthbert Allgood|Cuthbert]] are in it, hunting a skin-man, which are what [[werewolf|werewolves]] are called in that lost kingdom) and a sequel to ''[[The Shining (novel)|The Shining]]'' called ''[[Doctor Sleep (novel)|Doctor Sleep]]''. Are you interested in reading either of these? If so, which one turns your dials more? [We] will be counting your votes (and of course it all means nothing if the muse doesn't speak).<ref>King, Stephen. [http://www.stephenking.com/forums/showthread.php/15754-Steve-needs-your-input "Steve needs your input"], stephenking.com, November 30, 2009</ref>}}

The voting ended on December 31, 2009. The following month it was revealed that ''Doctor Sleep'' received 5,861 votes, while ''The Wind Through the Keyhole'' received 5,812.<ref>[http://www.stephenking.com/forums/showthread.php/16392-Doctor-Sleep-wins "Doctor Sleep wins?"], stephenking.com, January 6, 2010</ref>

==Reception==
The first review of the book was written by Kevin Quigley and posted by FEARnet on February 24, 2012. This appraisal of the book was very positive: "Most importantly, it manages to retain the quest structure of the first four novels and also subtly underscores King's obsession with the nature of fiction in the latter books, providing a necessary bridge between the two halves of the series. That actually may be the most apt word to describe ''The Wind Though the Keyhole'': ''necessary''. The next best word to describe this book? ''Fun''. Veritable buckets of it." Quigley elaborates on the book's thematic 'bridge' status: "the shift from the [[The Wonderful Wizard of Oz|Oz]] fascination of ''[[The Dark Tower IV: Wizard and Glass|Wizard & Glass]]'' to the ''[[The Magnificent Seven|Magnificent Seven]]''/''[[Harry Potter]]''/[[Doctor Doom]]/''[['Salem's Lot]]'' onslaught in ''Wolves of the Calla'' needed a better bridging element. If read as King intends, in between those two books, ''Keyhole'' mentally and emotionally prepares the reader for these fictional intrusions on reality."<ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.fearnet.com/news/reviews/b25514_review_wind_through_keyhole_by_stephen.html|title=Review: 'The Wind Through the Keyhole' by Stephen King|publisher=FEARnet|date=February 24, 2012 |accessdate=March 3, 2012}}</ref>

He was selected fourth overall by the Bengals in the [[2011 NFL Draft]]. Green played [[college football]] at the [[University of Georgia]].

==Early years==
Green was on the "[[juggling]] team" at his elementary school, telling [[The Atlanta Journal-Constitution]] that he learned to juggle balls and props as early as second grade. Green said it helped his hand-eye coordination a lot from an early age. He's able to juggle four balls and various props such as [[juggling club|juggling clubs]].<ref name="Juggling">[http://blogs.ajc.com/uga-sports-blog/2010/08/20/juggling-topics-with-a-j-green/ Juggling topics with A.J. Green, from NCAA to NFL to unicycles]</ref>

==High school career==
Green attended [[Summerville High School]] in [[Summerville, South Carolina]], where he played under legendary coach [[John McKissick]].

Green was widely considered to be one of the top football prospects of the 2008 high school class.<ref>[http://sportsillustrated.cnn.com/2006/highschool/08/04/top10.football08/index.html Green headlines top 10 football players in Class of '08]</ref><ref>[http://sportsillustrated.cnn.com/2006/highschool/12/21/whos.next/index.html Who's Got Next?]</ref> Standing {{convert|6|ft|4|in|cm|0|abbr=on}} and {{convert|205|lb|abbr=on}}.

Green]</ref>

In June 2006, Green was profiled by ''[[Sports Illustrated]]'' as part of its “Where Will They Be?” stories on potential future professional greats, alongside [[Peter Uihlein]], [[John Tavares (ice hockey)|John Tavares]], [[Tyreke Evans]], [[Elena Delle Donne]], and others.<ref>{{cite web |url=http://sportsillustrated.cnn.com/2006/magazine/06/26/where.will.they.be0703/1.html |title=Where Will They Be? |work=SI.com |date=June 26, 2006 }}</ref> ''Sports Illustrated'' compared him to the then-[[Oakland Raiders]] wideout [[Randy Moss]] and predicted Green will be in the [[NFL]] by 2011.

[[Rivals.com]] ranked Green their #9 prospect for the high school class of 2008,<ref>[http://rivals100.rivals.com/viewrank.asp?SID=880&Year=2008&ra_key=1803 2008 Rivals.com Top 100]</ref> while [[Scout.com]] named Green their #10 prospect nationally.<ref>[http://recruiting.scout.com/a.z?s=73&p=9&c=4&pid=88&yr=2008 2008 Scout.com Football Hot 100]</ref> He participated in the [[Under Armour All-America Game]].

Green was also on the Summerville High basketball team that claimed the 2007–2008 South Carolina state championship in a championship game against Spartanburg (S.C.) High.

They had played in the memory of their fallen assistant coach, Captain Louis Mulkey (Engine 15) of the Charleston, SC F.D., who died along with eight other firefighters in the June 18, 2007, [[Charleston Sofa Super Store fire]]. The story of the Summerville High team was featured on Sportscenter on December 2, 2008.
