Staley took part in the Elite 11 regional earlier this spring.

Elijah Staley has caught a lot of eyes on the basketball court but he's now starting to stand out on the football field, most recently earning an offer from Vanderbilt.

different positions but potentially, yes. Staley will likely be the more highly recruited of the two.

Not sure. He's still young. Lots of recruitment and evaluating left in both sports. Ultimately I don't think it will matter what his bball offer list looks like though because I expect him to accept a football offer and walk on in basketball.
