Evans story highlights college sports pressures and education
The piece critiques Jerry Evans poor academic record and sole focus on football, arguing too many athletes view majors as stepping stones to pro careers. It notes Evans 1.91 GPA at Admiral King, five years at Toledo, and inflated $300,000 yearly pro ambitions versus reality with the Cardinals.
