Five things Quinn Ewers enrolling early at Ohio State means for the Buckeyes and college football

5-star quarterback Quinn Ewers is headed to Ohio State a year earlier than expected. Here is what it all means for Ohio State and college football.

This won’t be the last time we see reclassifying for marketable high schoolers

Welcome to a brave, new world of a college football fan. High school athletes are not yet able to capitalize off of their name, image, and likeness, so for Ewers, it made sense to go to college so that he could rack in the endorsement money and other financial opportunities.

The mullet might be trademarked in some way, and he’s already reportedly received some pretty lucrative endorsement opportunities that he’ll be able to take advantage of once enrolled. Criticize it all you want, but if your kid was in the same position, you’d be hard-pressed to make any other decision.

We’ll see more of this now. There is no doubt. It won’t make sense for everyone, but those elite, generational, and marketable athletes will have this same opportunity in the near future. Especially with all the abilities to gain followers on social media. Bank on it.

NEXT … What does all of this mean for recruiting?
