Martellus Bennett

[NYC Duke Fan]

Ivan Meisel's pre-season All american Team has Marcellus Bennett as his first team TE. Is this the same player that Coach K was recruiting a few years back to play basketball at Duke ?

Same guy. There was some talk about Bennett being a football/basketball combo but I'm sure it was ever a realistic possibility at Duke given the present state of the football team.
