Curious, or trolling?

He may be a genius or dumb as rocks, but gets an A+ in Football. He's not attending college for a degree, bub.

Probably the same way people graduate early in college. He's not playing right now. Load up on extra course work. If he does that, shows he is disciplined enough to go after what he wants. When Joe burrow transferred here, he already graduated from Ohio State after be there only three years.

He’s a national merit scholar. So likely has advanced class credits

High school is a joke now? Not hard to complete a few classes over the summers.

Because he is really good at football and he can do things that you were not able to do when you were young one.

I’m a little uneasy about a DL reclassifying. If it were my kid rather I’d rather him get reps and another year to mature and that’s not just physical reasons.


With that said the kid clearly has a solid head on his shoulders if he’s that driven to be in a position to do this and I get with the monetary gains now it’s hard to wait.

For a smart kid and a good high school (hs) a (hs) student can graduate from his with many college credit hours. They can test out of basic college classes and frequently go to summer school at a college after their hs junior year.

A real sharp kid can graduate college in 2 1/2 years.

For some, the first 2 years of college is a cakewalk.

But not all kids need reps and maturing

Summer school i would guess.

Same way they do in college, i would assume. Jayden Daniels, for example, graduated from ASU in 3 years while literally starting from game one as a true freshman.

99% of pros need reps and maturing after 4 years of college. A kid with 1 actual season of playing against live competition needs reps and maturing. Right now he gets individual workouts and told he's the best thing ever. He may be some wonderkind, but I doubt it. It's a dice roll paying the kid upwards of 2 million per year with that track record. That's not shade it's just truth.

It doesn't need to be explained nor questioned.

While I agree with most on this question - I don't ultimately know regarding this young man and certainly don't care - I'll answer for the sake of knowledge.

Dual enrollment is replacing Advanced Placement courses in many high schools. Students take a greater variety and larger number of courses from the local community college. In many cases these classes transfer directly to the state college. I think the number may be between 5-15 classes.

My stepson was a sophomore in college by the end of his junior year of high school. Attended the University of Illinois on a marching band scholarship and got a ton of grant money for his academics. If Stewart is a National Merit Scholar, chances are he's ready for college.

Understandable, but this kid doesn't need to "grow into his body" or "put on good weight". He will get the reps with 2nd team or scout team next year, perhaps even play into the rotation. If he's as good as advertised, he wouldn't be here 4 years anyway.
