LOS ANGELES — It remains unlikely the University of Colorado will see its first football-basketball dual-sport athlete in nearly 30 years. But count Tad Boyle in on at least exploring the possible addition of new CU Buffaloes football La'Vontae Shenault to the basketball roster.
This past week, the younger brother of star receiver Laviska Shenault made his pledge to the Buffs official on national signing day. He also raised eyebrows by saying he has the blessing of new football coach Mel Tucker to explore the option of playing basketball for the Buffs as well.
Boyle has not yet conversed with the younger Shenault or watched his basketball highlights.
