This is just so dumb...

This is going to sound bad... but the best thing for College football and High School football is for Quinn Ewers to absolutely be a massive bust... total failure. Because if he succeeds... then this is going to turn into the norm... and the NIL is going to ruin High School football too....

#BREAKING: Five-star @OhioStateFB commit Quinn Ewers will skip his high school senior season & enroll early at Ohio State, @Bucknuts247 confirmed 👀

It is stupid, but depending on how much money they offer or get I would take it.

In a perfect world kids finish HS/College, but I also would do the same today.

Enrolling early means his eligibility clock starts right?

And we have examples of how this is done in Europe. They have been super successful at this for a very long time.

This is a good point, plenty of other sports where younger athletes make $$$

More high schoolers will transfer now to ensure playing time. Watch it will get

He's from Texas, so was probably held back

You realize he has been "held back" for football. At least this is my guess
