His scholarship to ND was in football. He played three years in both sports. <br /><br />Will Yeatman played lacrosse and football. Evan Sharpley played baseball and football. There has been others at ND. Current QB Everett Golson wanted to play basketball as well and because of grades and problems learning college football he has probably dropped that idea. <br /><br />You normally have to get the permission of the coach from the sport you received the scholarship in. You should have that worked out before you sign a letter of intent.<br /><br />I suspect playing two sports in college must be very difficult and balancing academics.<br /><br />Your son must be very talented. <br /><br />The best way to get noticed is to attend the summer camps sponsored by the college you are interested in. They all conduct them. These days you get highlight films made and send them out if your high school coaches won’t do it.<br /><br />Good luck.<br />Subway Alumnihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09899974749133090024noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4071657998826100432.post-90203013861096989622012-08-22T22:03:38.866-04:002012-08-22T22:03:38.866-04:00How long has Jeff played both sports?

Did he get athletic scholarships for both sports as well as academics? <br />-I believe my son's athletic capabilities are similar to his. Just want to know if it's possible to play both sports in college, especially a D1 school. Just curious. ThanksAnonymousnoreply@blogger.com
