Video: Jeremy Lin's talents extended to flag football at Harvard

Found February 13, 2012 on NESN.com: Yardbarker Blogger Network
PLAYERS: Jeremy Lin
TEAMS: New York Knicks

From NESN:

In case that whole NBA thing doesn't work out, the Knicks' Jeremy Lin always has a career in a flag football to look forward to.

When the 6-foot-3 guard wasn't tearing up the Ivy League in basketball back in his Harvard days, he was apparently dominating the intramural flag football scene instead.

Check out "Linsanity" leading his Leverett squad to the intramural championship in this 2009 video (which, for some reason, has only recently gone viral).
