We all know he got a 22/50. A 3.66 GPA in Child, Youth and family Studies? Is college really that easy for athletes? Before you say the major is easy, keep in mind there are still core courses that all must take. Either his 22 is artificially low or he got some major help.

Do you really think fricking Child, Youth, and Family Studies is a tough major for anyone?

If he had a 3.66 in engineering or something then maybe they gave athletes grades, but I bet he just took super easy classes

There are still core courses that peole have to take in college. Someone scoring a 22/50 should not have a college dagree with a 3.66 GPA, no matter the major. This is freaking college.

with that being said, he comes across as smarter than a 22/50.

I don't remember the story exactly, but I think the classes were even taught by assistant hoops coaches

He probably took highschool algebra and trig for his math, intro to science for non science majors, then intro English classes. There definitely are ways to take easy blow off classes and graduate.

I can't find that exact major, but I found this...

quote:

A Family, Youth and Community Sciences major provides the student with a foundational knowledge of:

Individual and family development and functioning in the community and societal context

Contemporary problems facing youth, families and communities

Organizational policies and programs designed to address needs and improve quality of life

Just because he gives a solid interview doesn't mean that he is a smart guy.

He looks like one of these:

I can't believe it's only a 3.66. 2 NCs and a heisman seems like if he should have a 3.75 for showing up

Dude did have a concussion during his final year, that probably brought it down a bit

And maybe they punished him his first year for not beating out Leak

Tebow's pretty fricking dumb.

#1- he made a 3.5 GPA in high school. A 3.5 is good you say? Well, Timmy went to Tebow Living Room High and mommy was his teacher. What the frick did mommy give him Bs in?

#2- he made an 890 on the SAT. Thats pretty terrible. The UF spin machine now claims he took the SAT in 9th grade just to get it out of the way because he was so focused, but I'm sticking with the belief that he's a tard.
