Good luck to him with keeping his scholly and passing classes without his "football privilege" that exists at schools like Texas

Athletes at all schools receive help and tutorship for what they do for the athletic department and school as a whole. I'm sure Texas may have more resources than some schools, but that's not to say that all schools would have this available?

How do you know he won't pass his classes without help of tutors for student-athletes? Do you know this kid?

I think that's an unfair double standard. I can't speak to what Brennan's going through because I'm a white male and can't relate to the cultural unrest of BIPOC. But I stand with him and support his choice no matter what. Some things are bigger than what the scoreboard reads on a football field.

And what exactly is he going through?

Must be tough having coaches and teachers and girls constantly tugging at you and supporting you since you started high school. Then getting to go to a major university in the best country in the world and play a game you love with the potential to make a career out of it and become a millionaire. Yep. Must really suck

Oh and if you fail at becoming a millionaire you receive a FREE 100k college education to go into the career field of your choice
