Recommended reading: Mike Ogle’s piece in The New York Times about Jonathan Meyers, a highly rated prep football star who turned down a scholarship offer from BCS power Florida, among others, to enroll at (gasp!) Princeton.In part, Meyers decided on Princeton to be able to play big-time lacrosse, but a little thing called … wait … it’s on the tip of my tongue … on yeah — education — also played a role.
“It’s not what everyone else thinks you should do; it’s what you want out of your school,” Meyers told Ogle. “Obviously the benefits you get from having a Princeton degree, I think that’s one of the most priceless things in the world as far as after sports and athletics are done.”
A top athlete actually thinking of life after athletics.
Amazing.
