So...why did he play his true freshman season at 20 years old? He's going to turn 22 this November so it's not like he's going to come out super young. He'll actually enter the draft a full year older than Mahomes was when he entered.
Can some of the hype be a little unfounded? I mean if you're talking about a 20 yr old freshman, that's a fair sight different than one that's 18 or 19, no?
I dunno - just something I noticed.

I have to say, I wasn't aware of this at all, so that's a very good question.
