I would not be surprised to see him in the top 8-10 very soon.
I was also sure Webb and Brayton had a college degree, my bad !
The original idea is that it would help riders (so passionated and talented people) to stay later in the motorcycle or automotive industry in general (i.e. local dealers) if they were supported to get a degree during their 250F years. Actually the schedule is not as demanding as the 450, a racing career also involve some couch time (injury...).
I thought about it also based on the universities top salaries in sports in a previous thread, which means some money is there. Wouldn't UCLA like to be mentioned during NBCSN or Fox networks in exchange of some scholarships (free fees)? Couldn't the Uni of Florida does it too as there is absolutely 0 to invest for them since lots of tracks & facilities are already managed? Wouldn't it attract riders to these unis?
Kids in MX are not stupid, schools is just some work. They usually come from mid to upper middle class so they usually have good foundations, so I think they can pass anything if MX is part of a reward in families. There are also tons of skills that can be developed during racing/uni:
- media management
- social media management
- marketing & communication
- sales (in local dealerships)
- public relations
- video / music
- event management
- data analyst (IT from sensors, etc)
- technical sportswear development (including protection)
- mechanics
- carbon fiber
- painting (@ TLD from entering the car customization market)
- anod
- CNC billet
- charity / sports accounting
- etc
Anyway, some food for thoughts.
