If you’re the #5 HS basketball player in the country, you don’t play football in college.

Youre pretty much an NBA player after 1 year of college

Exactly.  Not only are NBA players making a lot of money, it's easier on your body and your career is longer......on average.

Interesting.

Say he comes here and plays 1 year of football and then basketball that same year.

Can he still go to the NBA draft?

Well yes but the chances of him playing QB or any other position in football as a true freshman likely isn't very high.

Oh, since we have a true freshman who might play this year at QB?

If you're looking to argue about this, go find someone else.  A top 5 basketball player in the country is not going to play basketball or football at Nebraska.  Let alone both in the same year.

Oh god, no argument here nor am I saying he should or would. Simply asking a question brah, back off the ledge.

Yeah god forbid a kid wanting to get an education or wanting to play football over basketball - never heard such a thing..... and why would a kid that plays QB want to play at NU for SF?

Seeing how he could make millions his sophomore year, I would hope he would make the right decision and do that. He can get an education whenever.

I wonder how serious he is about playing college football.

Get Hoiberg and we will have a 5% chance...Otherwise he is playing basketball at a different school, probably Duke.

Not to mention he is a 1 and done in basketball.

The one thing is he LOVES football and has actually had more injuries in basketball than football.

I think he will look seriously at both but I would say we have almost zero chance at him for both sports just because he wants to probably play right away at FB.
