So you know sports???

Here's a trivia question that many people just don't know...see if you do.

What current NBA star was not only a high school football star, but played QB, RB, WR, kick off and punt return man, and safety? Oh he played them all fantastically, and was less than 5'6'' and around 150lbs.

I remember him but can't remember the name

I've seen some highlights of iverson playing HS football... He definitly was sick. He, Mike Vick, and vick's 1st cousin Aaron Brooks all grew up together in Va. around the same time and all played for high schools in the newport news area...

and nate robinson played football in college im pretty sure... thats a possibility..

Yup, I've seen those videos too but I think the only ones I've seen were him as a WR and return specialist.

Yup. Here you go: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hCAkVvNFk-0

The question was worded wrong, he was shorter then!

edit: He did say "was less than 5'6" " in the question..tricky bastard.

IVERSON IS AT LEAST 6FT TALL, LET'S THINK BEFORE WE ANSWER PEOPLE!
-----------------------
Then let's also consider that many, athletes especially, have grown significantly since H.S.

I knew I should have said no one w/sports avies could answer.

NoOneKnows you nailed it in the very first response, curses to you! And congrats.

Enjoy this...

Beat me to it!

But the question was not worded wrong, though maybe you read it wrong!

I said, "Oh he played them all fantastically, and was less than 5'6'' and around 150lbs."

Last time I checked "was" meant past tense!

**xlxBigSexyxlx** · 03-21-2008, 10:24 AM

Bogues or Boykins

**No One Knows** · 03-21-2008, 10:27 AM

Games over big sexy.

Better luck next time...

Hence the editing in my post giving you credit for using "was"...

Agreed!
That was quite a tape, and from what the coaches said not even a highlight reel...which was everytime he touched the ball or made a hit.

That's toughness, and it's just as visible on the court.

Good call again NoOne.
I know you wanted to kill me after reading only the first part of my post!
All in fun.
