Yes...that Doug Flutie, Boston College Heisman Winner from the mid 1980's.  Evidently MLB network has a new show debuting this week called "the next knuckler" where Tim Wakefield will take former college and NFL QB's and try to convert them into knuckleballers, the winner of the show gets an invite to D'backs spring training.

Scouts will say he's too short for his position and he'll end up in some USFL-type league before he finally gets a shot at the bigs.

That is awesome. Finally a reality TV show I can get excited about. I wouldn't doubt it if this inspires multiple MLB careers.
