He was supposed to be an athlete not a stock broker.

But he was never going to be a NFL guy. Smart move.

Technically true, but Dartmouth, like most Ivy League schools, is “need blind” in their admissions, which means they meet all demonstrated need. If his family is not uber-rich he will get whatever help they calculate is warranted.

And they lower their admissions standards for athletes. They don’t take dummies but a 1300 SAT might be sufficient for an athlete, whereas a non-athlete may need a 1500, be valedictorian, president of their class and have started their own nonprofit.

He went to STA and there was a story about his family taking in poor black kids, and that he was essentially raised w/ one or two of his teammates living w/ him. So I'm assuming they have money...

Former UF assistant, and Stanford head coach, Buddy Teevins is the head coach at Dartmouth btw. Sam McCorkle Jr (former UF walk-on DB) is an assistant there also. They've both been there at least 10 years now. Also on staff is former UF OL Cheston Blackshear.

I read a story a couple of years ago where Teevins was testing some robotic tackle dummy, which is now common use - even in the NFL. He led the charge for the Ivy League to not allow tackling in practice (which is extremely stupid, imo).

I expected him to go juco or 1aa... maybe become a coach after college.

I figured he'd get a job at State Farm.

Or, say you’re a lesbian trapped in a man’s body and that has worked out well for years because you don’t need batteries, but then you meet another lesbian trapped in a man’s body. Suddenly you realize you really do like girls.

It can definitely get complicated. But the next question that comes to mind is - how serious an offense to modern sensibilities would it be for a straight male to approach a beautiful lesbian by claiming to be a gay female trapped in a man's body, and then asking her if she would help a sister out?

Not much of an offense if it’s in Tennessee...

I live about 30 miles outside of Nashville, so that is very good news indeed!

Sounds more like LDR if you ask me....

LDR with Spurrier coaching him would have been more than serviceable.
