Good for him. I know it's not always about the education rather the fun of college and all but I like seeing kids finish school.
Kid loves being a college guy, will be Heisman favorite, and will be a favorite to play for the title. And knowing Kiffin the kid may throw for 5,000 yards next year.
It's cool that his dream is to make it big as a USC player and graduate more than a NFL player. His stock could drop like it did with Leinhart, though.
Honestly... If I were a big time college player at my dream school, I might not leave early either. Sure, there's the money factor. But lifestyle and all would be once-in-a-lifetime.
I look at Kiffin as an Ex that sucked as a girlfriend, but sure could [uck fay]. It wasn't a great fit and no way it'd ever work long term, but still some great memories.
