Two sport athletes are a disappearing phenomenon in Division I sports. Syracuse used to have many superstar athletes who dominated in more than one sport, with the legendary JimBrown and Vic Hanson leading the way.
A decade ago I wrote about the Syracuse football players who starred on the basketball team. There have not been any football stars on the hoops team since then. That could change if wide receiver Trishton Jackson gets his wish and is granted permission to play on the basketball team. We'll have to wait and see.
