We've got a story that's been buzzing around the college sports scene, and it's all about Stetson Bennett, the quarterback who really put the word ATHLETE in "student athlete". Buckle up as we dive into the of a seven-year ride that was Stetson Bennett's college career.
So, apparently, some Alabama fan started a media storm by claiming that Bennett never got his degree during his time at Georgia. Showing that the old saying C's get degress is not always the case.
Before we go judging the man, let's take a moment to appreciate the audacity of his unconventional college career. While the rest of us were stressing about finishing our degrees in four(ish) years, Bennett was out there, living his best life, and stretching his college experience into seven long years. I mean, who needs a degree when you can be an nfl quarterback and make more money in a weekend off cameo videos than most of our yearly salaries.
I can't help but wonder what Bennett's daily routine was like during his college days. Picture this: a 25-year-old quarterback roaming the campus, carefree. It's a spin off of Blue Mountain State, shout out Alex Moran. I'd pay top dollar for a behind-the-scenes docuseriers of his day to day life.
Now, let's talk about the impressive coordination that must have gone on behind the scenes to keep Bennett eligible all those years. Kudos to the UGA football team's academic advisors for their creative maneuvers. They must have pulled off some serious scheduling to ensure his continued participation while he seemingly ghosted his way through classes.
So here's to Stetson Bennett, taking college for quite literally all it had. Your unorthodox journey may have raised a few eyebrows, but it also reminds us that life is full of unexpected twists and turns. As we celebrate your achievements, both on and off the field, we can't help but admire your approach at life.
Cheers to the 7-year college adventure of Stetson Bennett.
