per the News & Observer:
Teague’s advice to high school athletes is to play as many sports as they possibly can and concentrate on academics.
“I might have been a little bit better if I had concentrated on one sport, but I wouldn’t have had as much fun or learned as much,” he said. “Playing as many sports as I could was absolutely the best thing for me. And you can’t emphasize the academics too much.
“I look at our football team at Minnesota and maybe three will play in the NFL for a very few years. Some of our basketball players may play in Europe. But their education will be with them forever.”
