respectable FSU education would suggest otherwise. For real, i know its far, but how do you turn that down, unless you don't want to have to work that hard.

If I had the choice between playing QB for FSU or playing QB for Stanford, given Winston's talent (as opposed to somebody who was going to be a backup), I'd go to FSU, too.

When he goes in the first round, he'll be the 3rd fsu quarterback taken in the 1st round in the past 5 years. Christian Ponder and EJ Manuel were the other two. They may not be nfl starters, but that's still very impressive.

Going to FSU over Stanford shows genius

1) He probably knew that FSU would put up with his off-field behavior. Stanford may have booted him.
2) Maybe he knew he didn't want any part of Oregon en route to a National Championship.

on the SAT, which he apparently did on the second test, supposedly translates to the 80th percentile, IQ-wise. Well, no, 80th percentile is not genius level, but it darned well isn't "average" either.

Does this somehow make Winston intelligent by association?

Like all schools, Stanford sdmits its share of "marginal" students for the sake of athletics.

a conclusion. Do you have any info that would lead someone to believe that Winston was a "marginal" high school or college student?

I don't know anything about his academic status....

yet it's still abundantly clear, at least to me, the guy is an idiot.
A solid score on his SAT or ACT isn't likely to change my assessment.

I gotta say! By reading some of these posts and responses. It's no wonder why a lot of minority students/fans may not feel welcome. "Some" of you guys are brutal and very prejudicial with your analogies. Winston maybe a jerk, but everything I've read and researched has said he is very smart. Same goes with Richard Sherman...
I really really really really hope that our players never read these boards.

when I was in college about 10 years ago, I did that stupid crap all the time with my buddies. I got silly and drunk and acted a pure fool (but nothing illegal). I'm just sayin we all were 18-22 before and I thank GOD almighty that I didn't have a camera on me at that age because I would have never been admitted to graduate school.
I used to be very critical of these young kids but then I had to remember that I'm lookin at them thru the lens of a 32yo which is very hypocritical.
