During the Joe Theismann era, 1 of the players was illiterate. Even though he somehow managed to attend college.

Yes, it was Manley.
Having gone to a school that had a D1 team and done tutoring and working in the computer lab I can definitely say I bet there was more than one.

Now don't get me wrong there are some pretty intelligent football players, linemen were almost always good students, we had one in med school that I knew, he just also happened to be a good center and love playing.

Basketball players on the other hand were all idiots. There was a class referred to as basketball math. It was addition, subtraction, multiplication and division and you could use a calculator.
