Watching Hoesly against Cornell he struck me a remarkable running back and I opined that NFL scouts might give him a look.

Individuals like Hosely have remarkable academic credentials to get into a school like Penn. He will thrive academically wherever he goes.

The same goes for others Wolf, Opara, Mack who are currently at institutions that one would consider of equivalent value to the Ivies. Wasn't that the basis for the Court decision which threw out the Court Case of the former Brown athletes?

"remarkable academic credentials"....I think ur giving these guys too much credit.

I assume most of these athletes are passable academically at best. Usually far below the average student at these schools.

Are the ivies really that different in terms of football and hoop players vs average student?
