All these low wonderlic scores are relevant because LSU is supposed to be a school and not a professional football franchise. In order to stay eligible all of these players somehow received passing grades in college classes despite being virtually illiterate. Now maybe Patrick Peterson is a savant who can pass classes for which reading and writing are prerequisites without actually, say, being able to read and write. But more likely he and many others are being given passing grades without actually learning the course material. This is bad on both ends because, one, the player is taking up a scholarship that could have been given to another athlete who would actually end up getting educated, and two, because the school is simply using the athletic talents of the player without fulfilling their obligation to educate him.

I fail to see how the posters' own athletic prowess has anything to do with the topic, that is, until NFL teams start giving out "academic athleteships" to geeks to compete in the Math Bowl Championship Series. Besides, the athletic equivalent to a 6 on the wonderlic test is probably something like being too fat to fit out the front door...
