I was about to post what I'm pretty sure was a link to the same story for a different reason. Some posters INSIST that we accept players at the NCAA minimum standards. Apparently, that was not the case with Tyjae who had the minimum score needed and could have blown off Tulane and accepted his offer at K-State. Instead, he worked on his test taking and re-took the test to match the tougher Tulane minimums.Wave755 wrote: ↑Sun May 07, 2023 10:26 am Tennessee after draft article of today on why selection of Tyjae in the 3rd round in spite of his having no ACL. And, nice background story on our great back. https://www.tennessean.com/story/sports ... 170008007/
We could have lost Tyjae had he taken the easy route and gone with his NCAA approved test score to K-State due to the differences in admissions standards. Things have gotten better, including jock-friendly major programs, but clearly we do not accept at NCAA minimums.
