Brennan got to sit behind the GOAT for 2 years so I expect Brennan to flourish this upcoming season.

Exactly what I came to post. Through AP exams or dual enrollment, kids can easily knock out many of the core classes while in high school.
Yep. We told our son that we don’t plan to pay for 101 classes. He started with the pre-AP in 6th grade and we’ve gone from there.

More likely that college courses are not as difficult or demanding as they once were to accommodate Millennials. Otherwise, overall enrollment would drop.

To keep my kids in HS busy and out of trouble I had them take summer classes. One of my sons went back his senior year to debate And another to play sports. The two girls went to the first half of their senior year, but I put them in a local judo to get used to the difference in the atmosphere of the class rooms and people in colleges, while they still at home they were both August babies and were relatively young to even start first grade.
But all of them could have graduated after their junior year.

Good for him but it's such BS. Remember, before the days of online classes, how many athletes had to come back years later to get their degrees?? Now they all graduate in three years. Hmm?? Are they just so much smarter or could it be....?
Looks like we found the a-hole in the room. Kick rocks, man.

I'm pretty certain Brennan was also an early en-rollee. So he has 3 1/2 years at LSU to cover another semester during the three summers. Hell, I remember taking 3 upper division classes during a summer while working 35 hours a week. It wasn't a "fun" summer, but it also didn't take me to the brink.

I listened to an interview with him recently on “Hey Fighting Tigers” podcast and He graduated YES!

Wow, a sky screamer. You low IQ, no education moron. We are having an adult conversation, go in the corner and wait until spoken to.

So why couldn't all the countless athletes of the 50's, 60's, 70's, 80's, 90's and even 2000's not accomplish this?? Those guys had the same opportunities as today's athletes, except the online option, which of course allows for God-knows-who to do the work for you. Wise up.

Nor would I hold it against them to pay someone else to do their classes for them while they are practicing football. Just the way of the world today. You really think Justin Fields is THAT smart??

What’s wrong with online classes? And I came in as a sophomore to LSU thanks to AP, college credit and pretesting. I could have easily graduated in 3 years but decided to stay an extra semester to get one last football season in and got a minor. Literally took 9 hours my last semester after taking 12 each of the previous 2 semesters. And that’s without intersession or summer school. So it’s very much possible to graduate early without much issue.

It's funny how you are sitting here saying everybody has a low IQ, isn't educated, among other insults, and yet you are the one posting the wrong info.

Nice job editing out my most important part: they had all the same opportunities as today's athletes EXCEPT THE ONLINE ADVANTAGE. Fake news by you.

What's wrong snowflake? You don't like hearing that athlete's across the nation (not just LSU) are abusing the online system to accomplish things no athletes of the past could?? How many former players had to go back to get degrees for "mama" or a "promise made to coach" etc etc. Now, everybody gets a undergrad in 3 years and a master's in 1. Geniuses. Here are some of the geniuses: Garrett Gilbert, Jalen Hurts, Charles Sims, Tate Martell, Kelly Bryant, Nick Starkel, Deondre Francois, and on and on.
Wow - the brain power in that group. They should be working on things far more important than football.
