UCLA Star Quarterback Rips Academic Standards For Alabama Football Players

UCLA superstar quarterback Josh Rosen clearly isn’t a fan of the loose academic standards for football players at Alabama.

UCLA QB Josh Rosen gave a very in-depth interview with Bleacher Report Tuesday, and he didn’t hold back one bit when it came to the standards for athletes in college, and how they vary by the school.

Josh "I didn’t say that, you did. (Laughs.) Look, football and school don’t go together. They just don’t. Trying to do both is like trying to do two full-time jobs. There are guys who have no business being in school, but they’re here because this is the path to the NFL. There’s no other way. Then there’s the other side that says raise the SAT eligibility requirements. OK, raise the SAT requirement at Alabama and see what kind of team they have. You lose athletes and then the product on the field suffers."

There’s nothing like a little trash talk to get everybody fired up for football season. I know several Alabama football fans. They’re fun people, they love the Tide and I’m sure they’d disagree with Rosen’s sentiments.

However, it’s hard to argue with the logic he’s using.



Lowww Tide!!!!!
