But how much time dammit?

Maybe we can take every college football, basketball, and baseball athlete who has a statue on campus and average out the amount of time between their last season and the unveiling of the statue.

Something tells me about 0.01% of them will have been erected a mere 18 months after leaving their school

Hell, we can start the study at Ole Miss. Coolidge Ball, the first African American athlete to play any sport at Ole Miss, left the school in 1974. When did his statue go up? 47 years later in 2021
