QUOTE The Slow Bus? 2-25-06 There is a rumor going around (started by a NFL website) that Vince Young scored 6 out of 50 on his Wonderlic test (a form of an IQ test). Normally I am not one to put much stock into IQ tests as a measurement of ones intelligence, but after taking the 15 question sample test on ESPN.com and getting 13 out of 15 correct it seems impossible to me unless someone has a mental disability that they would score only 6 out of 50. You would have to be the slow yellow school bus dumb to score 6 out of 50. You have to be trade for Steve Francis when you already have Falling Starbury dumb to get that low of score. Click Here To Take Sample Test Once again this is just a rumor and obviously book smarts are not the #1 characteristic of being a football player, but it would concern me if a QB I was considering drafting in the top 5 only scored a 6. I believe an 8th grader could score a 6 on this test, so either someone is just trying to tarnish Vince’s name or he is extremely stupid. What does it mean for his draft status? The alleged source (I still have a hard time believing he scored a 6) says he could fall out of the first round which makes me wonder if this is really legit or not. I will keep you informed as I find out more info. This post has been edited by Spectatrix: Feb 26 2006, 12:27 AM |

I saw in a magazine, had to be either maxim or playboy, that McNabb had one of the worst grades on the Wonderlic also.

I took that practice test. Got a 13 out of 15. I rushed through the profit question and screwed up the ratio. And the daylight question.
Anyway, I don't really see how any of that is going to matter as to whether someone can play good football or not. If I were a manager, I wouldn't even consider the test at face value. What I would consider is if they attempted to answer it to the best of their ability or if they just put down random answers to get it over with. That would show me if they're willing to give full effort, no matter how pointless the task may seem. -------------------- Spam? Isn't that something poor people eat?

His job is to read defenses and perform physically. He's damn good at it too.
Who the fuck actually believes IQ tests anyways ? I think it may have validity with mouth breathin droolinites and determining if they can take care of themselves or require additional aid....but shit man ! -------------------- QUOTE (Lance) now we have some dude from argentina wondering how to fuck dogmeat |

Its only one account, but I know a guy who said he's had classes with Young at UT. He said he is a good student who participates and does all his work.
He also said Aaron Harris is a dick, and rude in class. take it for what its worth -------------------- QUOTE (Lance) now we have some dude from argentina wondering how to fuck dogmeat |

id think being a good student is more important in the end. he could work his ass of in classes for all we know maybe he tries his hardest. nothing but admirable for that. and like rocky said he could in fact be mentally retarded hes a great football player and that seems to be the direction his life is going

Being a good student is more often than not more important than being smart. Just saying they're not necessarily the same. -------------------- ![]() |
