The whole YouTube channel excuse is really lame...

If monetizing his YouTube channel is really a reason to leave college (I feel like it's more of a slap at the NCAA than an actual reason), then that's not very smart. His top 3 videos only have 81k, 66k, and 26k views. No one's making money off that.

Players have graduated and stuck around in college sports for a long time.

EB would have left, even if he hadn’t graduated yet.

Exactly...he hasn't graduated and said in his interview he has 2 more classes

Because a kid does not come back to play just to graduate.

Maybe, but EB actually earned his degree. Lots of future NFL guys actually do

Can we add Matt Carlino to the list of players who left early? Everyone has been

I'm not saying it's not systemic. I'm just saying that EB's case is direct then Mika's

It's the concept and principle behind it that's the issue. It actually makes it

If the sports programs split from universities (which I am fine with), then they

I agree... They will turn into minor leagues and no one will care.

I wish I cared about my legacy as much as some of you think Elijah should.

There are differences, but based on EB himself graduating (which he hasn't done

Mika also graduated and was married.

Mika was a sophomore. How did he graduate early?
