Trent richardson took ACT 5 times and never made above 16! So how did he get into college? This was in article.



Well...that was in the article in the sense that the AD (important note: not the AD at Trents school) posting on a message board said it...not that the paper confirmed that.


Also, isn't a 16 or so the cut-off for an athletic scholly? It isn't like the "student-athletes" have to get a 36 or something..

Is there not a minimum ACT score to get into Alabama? At LSU, you have to have a minimum composite score of 22.

Patrick Peterson has already signed up to help them with the Wonderlic.


AJ Green and Julio Jones both scored very low on the Wonderlic. They are two of the most productive receivers in the game today.

Why must there be this charade of academic proficiency? Many of these guys are dumber than a box of rocks. But, if they can ball, let them ball. In fact, let them ball and give their scholarship to some kid who hopes to be a chemist or an engineer. That would be doing us all a favor.


This is insane.
