Mitchell was probably my favorite SEC player because of this. He was barely at an 8th grade reading level, which isn't uncommon sadly for D-1 athletes. He wanted to improve his reading because he knew that was a difficult goal for him, unlike football which he said comes easy. Really inspirational to see someone so intrinsically motivated.

that is unthinkable to me how a college student-athlete can't even comprehend his scholarship papers much less read at a level to be able to get qualifying scores on the ACT and passing grades in comp classes.
