Remember when Rosen trash talked Clemson/Deshaun?

UCLA QB Josh Rosen makes examples of Alabama, Clemson in critique of NCAA
The third-year Bruins quarterback had better be glad the Tide and Tigers aren't his schedule, the way he's talking.

We don't know that.

Based on his performance in the game of football, one could easily assume that he does not have the mental capacity of the other athletes he was commenting on, and that is why he was not able to do what they were doing in college.

It could also mean that he lacks the motivation to do what others did. While Deshaun was reported to "graduate in less than 3 years", he was actually on campus a semester early and football players frequently take summer classes to either speed up their timeline or lessen their fall class load.

I do think he's right...

(and its not a slight at Deshaun) that some guys pick what we all consider to be a fairly easy major while others choose a different academic path. I dont know Deshaun personally or why he chose the major he did but Rosen is right in that UCLA is a harder school academically and his choice of pursuing a MBA in addition to his BBA is more of challenge.

Of course from what we know now (and most of us thought then) Rosen will need his MBA alot sooner than Deshaun is gonna need his Comm degree.

Well...has Rosen even

Pursued is MBA...or is he still working on his NFL BS? ;)

1) Rosen hasn't gotten a fair shake yet (Arizona then Miami? Both with AWESOME supporting casts)
2) Academic comments I mostly agree
3) 'Chosen One', I don't have a problem with either ... rhymes with Rosen ...he is also Jewish ...so either way it works.

Oh the hypocrisy and the irony !!!

He's an economics major (who never graduated) but chose to leave school after three years to enter the NFL draft.

Sometimes good things fall apart so better things can fall together.


The referenced test scores don't make any sense. A little


Oct 31, 2019, 3:44 PM

digging and it looks like the average sat score at UCLA, Clemson, and Alabama is around 1315, 1245, and 1180. Hard to get over 1700 on a test with a 1600 high score.

2024 white level member flag link military_tech thumb_downthumb_up

Clemson's 1250 is out of a possible 1600, I don't know what


Oct 31, 2019, 3:48 PM

scale UCLA's 1710 is out of, but their actual average is around 1320. I hate poor research. Its either laziness or intentional slight.
