Total Academic Success of Power 5 Football Teams

[PSUTE]

Top 10. I'll take it...

Easy majors most likely. No way an athlete can do well in a class that takes a lot of your time and you have to be enrolled full time. I mean they would have to cut out a social life.

For instance, I don't think an athlete can do as well as me in Statistics or Biology, which are hard courses to get an A in and I got them. I don't know if they would do well in foreign languages like Spanish either.

Macroeconomics and English on the other hand are pretty easy. And those Business major classes.

Just because you are a dumb mfer doesn't mean athletes can't ace statistics or biology.

Tell that to the guy who graduated from PSU with two Masters degrees, was excused from practices because he was teaching classes, drafted in the 5th round and is now at MIT...

Some do. Players like Myron Rolle and Pat Haden are Rhodes Scholars. John Urschel was earning an MS in math while playing at PSU. Andrew Luck majored in architecture at Stanford.

So while MANY players don’t take advantage of the opportunities, some DO. Your statements are far too sweeping.

I guess if your football team struggles with the football part you celebrate the victories anywhere you can get 'em.

What are academics compared to the ability to move an oblong ball to a particular patch of grass in a way that’s better than the other oblong ball mover.
