I'll go ahead and say it for him...the greatest athlete ever to come out of Arkansas. If all of the recruiting services were around when Basil played in high school, he'd be top 10 nationally in football, baseball and track and probably top 25 in basketball. He is Mt. Rushmore on the Rushmore of Arkansas HS football legends.
National Sports News Services' 1991 USA High School Athlete of the Year. Plenty of people wanted him.... assets.espn.go.com/mlb/columns/schwarz_alan/1396641.html
They say everything happens for a reason, but damn only if certain events in his life didn't happen. I would want to do a ESPN 30 for 30 documentary on him.
The One that Got Away in 1992 in the State of Arkansas. Years Later in Alabama, Tebow signed with the Florida Gators which led the door open for Nick Saban.
He’s my baseball coach today
He is so humble!!! Thanks for doing this story!!!
Wish someone would put more highlights of him on here!! What a legend!!
Had the pleasure of playing and running against him when I moved to Texarkana from NY. He is the best athlete to come out of Arkansas!! Hands down!!!
Kevin Thomas I played against both of you guys, Eldorado Wildcats
