The Lakers’ superstar forward recently took to social media, questioning his college eligibility for a sport other than basketball. He indicated that he can foresee himself competing in collegiate sports; however, he didn’t specify which sport he might try his hand at. Interestingly, he sent out his tweet to make the rounds on social media amid a wonderful day of college football.

“Do I have college eligibility if I went to play another sport besides basketball? How does that rule work?”, James tweeted.

When one thinks of a sport in which LeBron James may excel other than basketball, they immediately envision him on the football field. During his high school years, he was a football star and one of the most dominant wide receivers in the state of Ohio.

However, he set his foot firmly in the hooping realm straight out of high school and didn’t attend college. And it’s safe to say that that decision paid off, as he is now considered one of the greatest athletes of all time.

Twitter erupted following LeBron James’ tweet

LeBron James will be entering his 20th NBA season this upcoming campaign. At the startling age of 37, he shows no signs of slowing down. However, it isn’t long before the day the man from Ohio decides to set his basketball powers to rest.
