 AJC investigation: Many athletes lag far behind on SAT scores

 Football and men's basketball players on the nation's big-time  
 college teams averaged hundreds of points lower on their SATs than  
 their classmates, and some of the gaps are so large they call into  
 question the lengths to which schools will go to win.

 The biggest gap between football players and students as a whole  
 occurred at the University of Florida, where players scored 346  
 points lower than the school's overall student body. That's larger  
 than the difference in scores between typical students at the  
 University of Georgia and Harvard University.

Because he couldn't get into a 4 year school out of high school, he went CC.
He then transferred to SOW, but had to wait until January to play to abide
by the transfer rules.
