Now in his second-year as quarterback for the Dallas Cowboys, Prescott has been not only the consummate team player and leader on the field -- he's also those things off of it, consistently working to make his late mother Peggy proud. It's in that spirit that the Haughton, LA native says, despite already making millions between his NFL salary and a slew of new endorsement deals, he'll be heading back to school at some point to receive his doctorate in psychology.

Can he get accepted into a doctoral program?

From all accounts of his time at MSU - he's fairly bright. He finished with a master's degree while a player. That happens, but its not a common occurrence.

I didn't know about his academic performance while at MSU. I suppose if he can score high enough on the GRE he could get into a program.

If he's successful, can we call him Dr. Football?

Good for Dak- always a good thing to continue your education. Cute, talented and smart- Dak's pretty much a badass.

Yep
He would have been a great fullback at LSU.

4-5 years for a doctorate
~3 for a masters

Yes you are right.
LSU had who playing QB in 2013-14-15 that was better than Dak?
