A new favorite major choice by a NCAA football player
« on: January 08, 2009, 11:18:36 PM »
WR for Florida, don't remember which one, when they showed his bio, his declared major was "Recreational Sports Management".... what?

So he is running Rec Sports leagues after school?  oooo the NFL thats right.

Actually, where I live there is a former NFL player running the City's recreational sports program.  He played about 18 years in the NFL as a punter and quarterback (almost exclusively a backup).  He's doing a great job.  My son was fortunate to have him as a football coach for a year and loved it.  Compliments from that coach meant a little something extra to the kids.  So, maybe that's not a bad major.

One of my friends majored in Rec Sports. He now has a full ride for a masters as he helps run their Rec Department.

What's scarier is there is a masters program for Rec Sports.

I had a girlfriend that majored in Recreational Management or something of that sort at Illinois State.

The rest of the kids down at that university nicknamed the major "Underwater Basket-Weaving."  :p

I'm not sure why, but I sense that this should have been teal.  But, yes...
