Was having a conversation about Justin Gage playing football and basketball at MU and it turned to how difficult it would be in the modern D-1 system. I think it would be much easier to play football/baseball rather than what Gage attempted.

Who would you rate the most successful modern 2-sport athlete?

Marquise Goodwin, I don't know how successful he will be in football, but he's been pretty :!: impressive as a true frosh.

He's a Texas receiver who is also a track star and is slated to be one of the top tracksters for the USA in the 2012 Olympics.

I believe Jamaal Charles was a running back and a sprinter at Texas.

I am sure you were probably looking for a Male athlete but my nod goes to St Louisan Kristin Folkl.

Appeared in 6 finals fours combined and an All American in both sports. 4 times for Volleyball and once for basketball and of course graduated from an excellent academic school.

I'd vote Bo Jackson (baseball/football) or Deion Sanders (baseball/football/track)
