It's time for high school football recruits to go the HBCU route

Very good point as well. I guess you gotta just do your research and pray that you and your kid land in a good spot.

Difference is one school admitted an athlete that had no business being in there while the other where it was open door (then not now).

When it's all said and done the object for the student should be to graduate in 3-5 years; however, those who leave college early for the NFL should be in a financial position where they can return to school and seek graduation. I know some will make enough money and hopefully invest wisely and might not return. The player has to use the school as much as the school is using the player, get that degree...Also, has mention by someone early, do your research...

Study: Graduation rates for bowl-bound teams up slightly
