Besides, what is he gets a career ending injury in his second game? What does he do then. Sometimes an NFL career is pretty short. What do you do with the rest of your life then????????????

Well, if he gets hurt, he could always go back to school then.
Or he could follow in Steve Young and Shaquille O'Neals footsteps and earn his degree during the offeason.

Yes, I suppose you could.
Actually I guess my objection comes because I think of college as preparing for your future through academics. Not a football scholarship so you can go make millions in the pros. And I think of those young people who could use those scholarships themselves, only they cant play any kind of sports. Because after all, there is only so much money available. I put more value on the education than the extra million or so he would have made had he gone out for the draft earlier.
This is merely an opinion gentlemen. Maybe because I am not a guy. And it probably is a really wierd thing for a sports mod on a sports forum to say.

For every Robert Smith there are literally tens of thousands of guys just skipping along in college hoping for a shot at pro football.

No, but I most certainly wish I had gone to school. Super rich will never make you a better person. Rich is not necessarily better than poor.

In the movie Tony Stark had to use his GREY MATTER to get himself out of a situation money could not. Education is the best thing.
