smart, lets lock the thread with the correct link and keep the one that's wrong because it's older.

that's impressive though. so what, if any, is the legal age for someone to enter college and play sports? we've all heard the stories about brain childs taking their 4 year degree at 12 or something, so obviously the school part isn't a problem. we definitely know getting athletes admitted is no problem even if you're a total loss at school.

i figure the ncaa must have a limit though? otherwise, it'd be easy to shoot this kid through high school in a year, two at the max along with intensive training. boom, he's playing college ball at 16.

or, what about a grace period the he'd be eligible to play, but didn't have to take classes until say his second year. then he could go ahead and start playing and finish up his high school stuff with a tutor or something. different i know, but it's done all the time the other way around. where a player finishes his degree, yet still plays the next season.

i'm just curious if this is even possible, about the logistics only i guess. not the morality, well being of the kid bullshit, etc.

^^^ Amobi Okoye started high school when he was 12, started playing for Louisville when he was 16, graduated and was drafted in the first round by the Houston Texans when he was 19. So it's possible.

Yeah, but he's like a genius.

You kind of have to be smart to do that, there's nothing indicating this kid is any smarter than your average 8th grader.

5/12/2008 7:39:40 AM

Actually, this kid is already 15, so he's dumber than your average 8th grader.
