(WXYZ) -- During an interview on "The Dan Patrick Show" Tuesday, Baseball Hall of Famer Ken Griffey Jr. discussed how his athletic career could've been drastically different.

When Patrick mentioned that Griffey could've been an Ohio State football player like his brother, Griffey responded, "I'd have probably gone to Michigan."

Griffey went on to explain that Vada Murray, a friend of his who went to Michigan, was his "big brother" as a freshman and sophomore at Moeller High School in Cincinnati.
