Tugged at my heart strings...am already missing these elite players. They will be sorely missed.
UGA66, I humbly agree!
What’s the latest on Stetson?
@Mike Griffith
Mike, I had a question regarding Bennett's age. You've said he is 24, going on 25. In a number of on-line profile sites, his age has been 23 (BD; Oct, 1998) and 24 (BD; Oct, 1997). Sometimes, both ages and birthdays appear in the same article.
Now, Bennett graduated HS and walked on at UGA in 2017. If his Birthday is indeed Oct, 1997 (age 23), that means he was 19 when he graduated and turned 20 in his first walk-on season at UGA. Was he held back a a grade or did he start school late? This time line doesn't make sense. I was 17 when I graduated and turned 18 that summer.
Which birthday is correct? And please don't say, "his Dad said". Cause that Dawg don't hunt. LOL. Father's are known to get ages and Birthdays wrong. My Dad did, I did, some of my friends scratch their head when asked about their kids ages and birthdays. They'll tell you the first thing that comes to mind, and stick to it, till proven wrong, cause they're embarrassed. LOL
BTW, I wrote this question here, because there seems to be an issue with the COMMENT section of your last article. Thanks.
@BigDawg61 His DOB: is 10/28/97.
I hope this helps....
So, he was 19 when he graduated and turned 20 in Oct 2017....his 1st semester of college.
Why? This is not a typical time line. Just curious, unless it's a secret.
It can't be an academic issue, else he would not have been Accepted @UGA, right?
In fact, it's not 1, but 2 years to the right of the typical time line. That's why he's 2 years past the typical college graduate age of 22. What's the deal?
In fact, if I'm not mistaken...Bennett would have been ineligible to compete in High School football in 2016 due to his age (19). According to GHSA rules. At least, to the best of my recollection, that's the way it was when I played.
