He “Apparently” cannot get qualified. So much talent. Maybe he can find a Way to get into a school that can help him on the academic side so that he can showcase his talent.

But at some point High Schools are going to Have to take a stand that athletes do not get to play if they do not take care of the Student part of Student-Athlete.
