Absolutely right in you post. There are more functionally illiterate kids playing in college today than ever before. Hell some players even come out and say tha they didn’’t come to said school to go to some stupid classes, but only to play football. It would be a joke, if this wasn’t so pathetic.
Or sometimes, schools even help them out with 'pretend classes' ...
