Well, you might want to look at the study again and see what’s happened since his (Knight’s) departure. IU is an embarrassment in this study.
I have always admired Ellis Hobbs (he played at my school...Iowa State). After the Bowl game in 2004 he left College to get ready for the NFL Draft. BUT, he promised his Mom that he would get his degree.
He did, finishing up with night classes while playing in the NFL; he even had to fulfill an “internship.” He flew back to Ames to participate in the Graduation ceremony five years later...his entire family flew to Ames to watch. Neat photos:

Yeah and look at the program he went to. It wasn’t the school it was the coach
