Making the lateral move to IB from a large fund of funds

I am trying to get an idea of how feasible it is to move from a FO role at a large hedge fund of funds to IB. My opportunities were limited out of college since I played D1 football which took away any internship possibilities. Is it possible to make this type of move as I near the end of my second year in my current role? Any recommendations for books, courses etc. are also very welcome.
