Track/Football or Football/Track

Have we had a football player on the track team since JQ? Jamal Marshall may have been a good person to pull double duty. Also, have we had any track guys come out for the football team? Would love to have this guy come in for redzone situations and just park in the back of the endzone. 6'6" high jumper? Are you kidding me? As long as he isn't "stone hands" from NecRoughness, why not? Heck, why not even a basketball player for those situations? They wouldn't need much conditioning or playbook teaching, just a handful of JJ Watt style plays just to get a cheap score.

Rules have a lot to do with it.  For a track athlete to play football, he must count as a football scholarship.  

When did this start?  Because I recall Miami rebuilt their program during their NCAA scholarship reduction penalty with some athletes on other athletic scholarships including track scholarships.
