LeBron James isn’t just one of the greatest NBA players ever, he is also considered one of the greatest physical specimens in the history of any sport.
It is generally believed that had he decided to do so, he could’ve had a fairly successful career as a football player, perhaps while playing wide receiver or tight end.
In fact, the NFL’s Seattle Seahawks made it known recently they would love to have him on their roster.
Now that James is about to start his 20th NBA season, his mind may be wandering a bit as far as what he’ll do when he’s done playing basketball. In fact, he went on Twitter and asked if he would be allowed to play college football, given that he never attended a university.
Do I have college eligibility if I went to play another sport besides basketball? How does that rule work?

If playing NCAA football ever came to pass for James, it would be an interesting spectacle, although his haters would likely dismiss it as a publicity stunt.
Still, James could possibly excel there, especially given the lesser competition and the success he had playing varsity football at St. Vincent–St. Mary High School.
