Mckinnon getting a phD...

Postby punisher » Sun Oct 09, 2011 11:46 am

I ran into randy mckinnon at blockbusters and talked with him about his future and I must say I am again impressed with everything about this guy. He said he gets surgery next week but he intends to apply for his medical and come back for the final season although he could of finished this year.

Aside from hearing that portion of good news,he said that he only has a few credits left to complete his masters so he plans to enroll into a PhD program for the fall since he has another year..I told him he must really love school and he laughed and said I just want to be successful in life and that's one of the ways to achieve it. It's refreshing to run across guys like randy every once in a while...Great job June!!

I wonder if the NCAA has ever interpreted the 6th year medical redshirt rule with the Senior Graduate Rule-may set precedent

That's so cool....I would love to see him play significant minutes next year.....he absolutely deserves it. It would also be such good press for SMU to have a doctorate student playing for the football team.

Talk about a guy that is making the most of his scholarship. Good for him - easy to pull for guys like McKinnon.

I'm more shocked that not one, but two people are actually still patronizing a Blockbuster location!

Jk, that's awesome about McKinnon
