Never said they were coasting.

I'm saying kids are not taking classes and thinking a ton about how they will internalize it and how it will prepare them for their career. Sure it's in the back of their minds, but for the most part they work to get a good grade. Forget the vast majority of material within weeks after finals.

I went to BYU and my degree was plenty academically challenging.

Huh? People get real degrees and play football.

JuicyJam

They get real degrees but they don't learn as much and don't prep themselves

JuicyJam

Not sure when or where you went to school. But BYU pretty academically

The fact that everyone is trying to get a good grade shows that students

You’re right that most students do that - but with athletes it’s even worse

These are bad comparisons, he doesn’t have to choose sports at a D2 school. He

You’re missing the point

reddead

4/21/18 12:08am

Well then stick to the point, because the three DII stories here seem tangentia

Cougarclaw

Too bad, his tape was awesome. Absolute beast.

NacoCoug

4/20/18 11:08am

Thought so too. Looked like about the last guy you would expect

mokelembembe

4/20/18 1:05pm

Agree very much. But one potential prob was he was a MLB in an OLB body.

mantis mutu

4/20/18 3:32pm

Yikes, that is a big loss

kimdaddy35

4/20/18 12:06pm

I doubt it, I sat next to his HS coach at the Wyoming Poinsettia bowl

g$

4/20/18 2:47pm

honestly not a bad choice

4/20/18 2:49pm

he is a finance / pre-law major, I was close

That has nothing to do with it

4/20/18 9:39pm

Actually, yeah. It does.

4/20/18 10:42pm

Can you expound on the culture/coaching issues?

GOR

4/20/18 11:41pm

He’s not a Poly player, so probably best for him to move on

balssy

4/26/18 12:19am

I ran into him at the gym. He said it had to do with concussions

BYuckner

4/21/18 1:11am

If so then he made a smart choice. Best of luck to him.
