I don’t know who this kid is or how much talent he has, but it’s all too common that some of them with a modicum of skills forego their senior year on a full scholarship, leave their degree unfinished, just to make a quick few million in the pros. The good (or lucky) ones have a financial planner who keeps them on the straight and narrow, while others get injured or cut, and have nothing to show for it all after burning through their paydays with loose women, fast cars, and fair-weather friends. It’s no wonder teams have staff financial planners, because honestly, more than a few players are physically-gifted boneheads who breezed through school based on what they could do onfield, but in practice are about as bright as a sack of wet mice.
Yeah they should stay in college, risk getting injured, and thus making zero dollars, but come out with that Phys Ed degree from Georgia that will stand him in good stead on life’s rocky road.
That’s the smart move.
