I have seen the undergraduate CJ coursework. Most decent high school seniors could test out of it.

I have heard the graduate program is very good.

Sorry to take this thread OT, but I am perplexed that more athletes don't major in Education. They would be in demand as teacher-coaches back in their hometowns (and maybe a lot of other towns, too) if and when their professional BB/FB careers fail to materialize.

The problem is getting to student teach. You can't put a full day on like you would have to.

You don't need to be a teacher to coach at a school.

No, but usually teachers get first right to claim a coaching job, and at least for football, I have seen that it helps a lot with discipline for the coach to be in the school each day .

meh if the kid was all that at QB he'd be the starting or back up qb at Ohio State...

I said the same thing about Kiel (at ND) and I stick by that
