My take is that Corbin probably believes he's got a better chance at going pro in football than basketball. He's steadily improved in basketball the past two seasons, but there's probably a ceiling for him in that sport.
In football, who knows? The bloodlines are certainly there.
At any rate, he will be one of the tallest gridders in the country — and he almost certainly will have to put on 25-30 pounds to play defensive end, which is where he is projected to play. Of course, Corbin's father, Steve, is BYU's defensive line coach, the only holdover from Bronco Mendenhall's staff that new coach Kalani Sitake kept around.
