Patrick Mahomes. So hot right now. The 23-year-old Texas Tech product has led his Kansas City Chiefs to a 4-0 start to the season while setting insane records through the first quarter of the season. The tenth overall pick has already thrown for 1,200 yards with 14 touchdowns and zero interceptions. Otherworldly stuff for any professional QB, never mind one born in 1995.

Mahomes is one of those dudes who, growing up, could step on any field or court and dominate. He attended Whitehouse High School in Whitehouse, Texas where he played football, baseball, and basketball. He was an absolute demon on the football field, no surprise there, but he was also a prospect for the 2014 Major League Draft. He threw a no-hitter with 16 strikeouts in a game his senior year, en route to being named the Maxpreps Male Athlete of the Year for 2013–2014.

Here’s a 15-year-old Mahomes powering in a run at the 2010 Junior League Baseball World Series Championship Game.

And new evidence has come to light that Mahomes was a force on the hardwood as well, which should have already been evident in this textbook euro-step he used to celebrate his first rushing touchdown in the NFL.

According to MaxPreps, during Mahomes one recorded season playing Varsity basketball, the dude averaged 19 points per game, 3.4 assists, 6.7 rebounds, and 4 steals. Check out the 6’3” guard banging on dudes during his Junior year.

I officially feel like a beta male. Thanks, Pat. Dick.
