Florida State Football has a Rhodes Scholar.  I'm pretty sure this is one of the signs of the college football apocalypse.

What next?  Vanderbilt in a bowl game?

I'm shocked that all of the stupid negative things you post on here you remembered to mention Myron Rolle. What's wrong celebrating the good things along with all the arrests, fights, cheating, flunkouts, and drugs?
For those of you that want to see more about Mr. Rolle's grand achievement, here's a link to a NY Times article:

Enjoy.

I was glad to see ESPN did a piece on Rolle this past weekend.  The things he has accomplished and his goals in life are nothing short of spectacular.  I tip my hat to Myron and hope there are a lot of young athletes that are looking up to him right now.  Absolutely amazing.

Agreed.  I would never take anything away from his accomplishments.  I'm certainly no Rhodes Scholar!  I wish I were, though.....
