I remember everyone being pissed at him for dragging his football recruitment along to concentrate on basketball season, but I never knew he was a top-100 recruit in basketball.
Like I said, I never actually saw him play bball and there are relatively few highlights of him and no real game footage I can find. It was more a word-of-mouth thing at the time. He probably did make the right decision by sticking to football since he's a borderline starting QB in the NFL and that's a job only 32 people on earth can claim.

But, I can see how he'd be a really good basketball player, too. He's 6-5 and extremely athletic, with an unusual combination of speed/balance. You never know how things will transfer from sport-to-sport, though.
