Reminder: Rudy Ruettiger was only in for 1 play, and his story is said to be one of the greatest sports movies of all time.

Stetson Bennett's college career makes Rudy look like a chump. Bring it on!



ETA: Tell me this kid wasn't born to play Bennett:

Did you read the OP? Rudy was in for one play. If a walk-on whose grit and determination is held up as the gold standard for CFB movies, then how awesome could Bennett's career story be given that he actually accomplished something as rare as back-to-back national titles?

The movie about Stetson Bennett will be the most highly anticipated sports related movies of all time. Everyone of this forum will definitely watch it multiple times.

Rudy was 28 years old when he graduated from ND and was 26 when he played in the GT game. If you ever saw the movie you would know this or at least would have known that he wasn't a traditional student at ND. You owe it to yourself to see the movie...GT loses in the end, it is really moving. and the whole Rudy angle is kind of interesting also....

“Simple Stetson” is a better title considering he still doesn’t have a degree after a fricking decade

I would guess odds on favorite probably Bowers. If they want to go interracial as well, the other tight end as he was referred to as “Big O”.
Or if they want to go inter-institutional, they will have a scene where he runs out of bounds and crashes into an A&M yell guy which leads to a long distance relationship and a “going public” scene as the most important part of the movie at the end.

Its been less than 6 years. He is on track to finish a degree in economics in May of 23. 86% of UGA students finish an undergraduate degree in 6 years or less which is 10% higher than UGA peer institution average of 76% graduation rate within 6 years. It is not at all unusual for football players to take more than 4 years to earn a degree and not unusual for all students at a given school to take longer than 4 years. I can't speak for everyone but I went to school full time at night and worked full time for nearly 6 years to earn a undergrad degree and from what I saw of my fellow students who were not working full time I would have gladly lived their lifestyle as long as finances would allow...college can be FUN if you ain't also working 40+ hours a week in a labor intense job....
