Now, i am from this district in VA, an can vouch for when i was younger actually seeing AI play high school football and basketball.
He was easily on the level in football of Aaron Brooks, Mike Vick (who i played against) and Ronald Curry (who i played against)
I thought this little clip was pretty ill.

He was the best high school defensive back and kick returner i ever seen,
and was probably the #2 or 3 high school QB i have seen in person.

I saw some great high school QB's in my years as well, including:
AI, Brad Banks, Tim Tebow, Anquan Boldin, Ronald Curry (the goat), Mike Vick and others.

    I believe that he's the only HS player in history to wine the Parade National Player of the Year in Football and Basketball... as a Junior. He had a real shot to repeat that feat as a Senior but he got locked up for that bowling alley fight.

    You know there is only a certain amount of black qbs allowed. lol.
    Curry was never a WR prospect lol.
    He had 4 Offenses in 4 years at UNC and still had all the passing records when he bounced.

    Ivo was too real for the NBA. No other player of his caliber ever got that treatment. He should've never left Philly. He had to play with a coach that ? on him to begin each season and he still produced.

    yeah the alcoholism and attitude problems over the years has nothing to do with why a team doesn't want to sign AI

    I played against them ? . Vick was NEVER considered on Curry's level by ANYONE in high school as a QB. As a basketball player, i felt Curry was overrated.
    He was the starting PG at UNC for a few years tho.

    He started at QB for UNC for 4 years and took them to 4 bowl games.
    When he was in high school him and Carson Palmer were the top 2 high school QBS. Guess we found out who was better lmao.
    He was not quick enough to be a great point guard, and was not tall enough to be a power point, like Deron Williams.

    Him, Julius Peppers and Jason Capel FTW in b-ball lol. (or FTL if you go by thier record)
