Those who believe that this is a typical case of football being more important than academics need to look at the full picture. First, Witt chose to go to Yale instead of a Division 1 school where he would have had national exposure and a much much better chance of being drafted. While he might still have that chance now despite going to Yale, he'd likely have it whether he started this game or not. Second, he has a 3.91 GPA, so he's obviously not blowing off classes to lift weights; he's embracing the role of a student athlete.

I believe Witt in his statement that he is doing this for the teammates who rely on him as the starting quarterback. How come everyone is discounting the fact that he's giving up personal advancement opportunities in favor of supporting his teammate?
