That's why he was at West Virginia. All of the kids that can't get into schools with academic standards go to either West Virginia or Marshall.

At least Frank had an excuse

I totally believe that some of these athletes are dumber than a 3rd grader, they get their asses kissed and pushed through school once they're athletic ability is known

Lets evaluate some of the facts:

Tavon attends a-

A State School that happens to be located in West Virginia. In addition, the brotha is an athlete

No one was going to ever confuse this Brotha for a physicist

Intelligence is relative.

I'm pretty sure Brain surgeons can't go on an NFL and execute 100s of different plays as efficient as these NFL players can

Is a physicist the standard for smarts or intelligence?

There are plenty of avenues where most physicist would be considered dumbass and score the equivalent of a 7 in that fields proficiency test

:rudy:

Those instincts aren't based off of intelligence?

Not really. If somebody throws something you'll generally move out of the way. What does that have to do with knowing how to read or write? Nothing. Just the same as running fast and juking people. Poor instincts is the worse thing an athlete can have.

Lol yes.

While a physicist may not know how to change the oil to his car or do his own plumbing- most would agree that physicists/engineers have much stronger logic skills than most. Logic and basic math, thats really all the wonderlic evaluates.

Some Examples:
.1) Round 907.457 to the nearest tens place
A. 908.00
B. 910.00
C. 907.50
D. 900.00
E. 907.46

Q.
2) What is the average of: 12, 15, 23, 10
A. 10
B. 15
C. 16
D. 12
E. 20


Even some of you IT cats should be able to answer these...
