Absolutely. With a 6' 8'' /250 lb frame on a tight end/ receiver with speed and hands like his is rare. As well, he clearly has good quickness (the most underrated attribute for a football player). He would have given Ohio State an exploitable mismatch on both linebackers and defensive backs. He may not have had great pure speed, but could use his physical frame and 44'' vertical to go up and snag any ball (especially in the Big 10...the SEC may have been a different matter). He would be comparable to Sterling Sharp, Antonio Gates, or Vernon Davis as far as physical characteristics and style of play are concerned.
Also, he said if he didn't decide on playing Basketball, he would be playing for the Ohio Buckeyes right now.
