Getting the degree is the best backup plan an athlete can obtain.
Finishing school while on scholarship is pretty valuable from a financial standpoint, and if he went to the league and washed out, he's paying his own way to go back. Good decision. |

It might be a mistake. Then again, maybe he's a number one pick in a couple of years.

Is the kid smart?
What degree is he getting? I think this is a horrible decision, but I guess it's better to get a degree and make 50k a year (maybe) than make an NFL roster (which he will) and make that amount almost every month. Edit: Rookie Salary is 420k. |

Notorious the extra starts should help improve his future value in the pros. He would already be light years behind Winston and Mariota this year.
