The Montana Grizzlies wear different helmets almost as often as Oregon does, but I’ve never seen a logo like that on them

Everybody is somebody else's weirdo.
Just sayin':
1. I remember (many years ago) you would hear stories of players being academically ineligible and/or having to get a certain GPA on courses in the Summer to become eligible to play in the fall, etc. Hell, 28 years ago Andy Katzenmoyer's academic situation made the national news; and they made a joke about the 3 classes he needed to get at least a GPA of 2.0 in.
2. I can't recall any academic issues at all in recent years and I don't recall hearing of any player just dropping off the team for "unknown" reasons either. KUDOs to the athletic department for running what is apparently a "tight ship" on the academic side. They have to be;
a. Screening recruits better and passing on the ones that they deem (let's say) a "very high academic risk".
b. Better enforcement of academic policy to make sure the players attend class and keep up with assignments.
c. Being proactive in addressing academic issues early, etc. before they become an actual eligibility issue.
It's probably all of the above and much more.

For those that don't remember Reggie:
Google AI: Former Ohio State wide receiver Reggie Germany famously posted a 0.0 GPA during the 2000fall quarter, causing him to miss the Outback Bowl. He later admitted he stopped attending classes to focus entirely on the NFL draft out of youthful immaturity, though he eventually returned and graduated with a sociology degree in 2015.
Background and Impact
- The Incident: At the end of the 2000 regular season, Germany was declared academically ineligible for the upcoming bowl game against South Carolina after earning a 0.0 term GPA.
- The Aftermath: Germany acknowledged that he completely neglected his coursework because he viewed college merely as a pit stop for a professional football career.
- Professional Career: Despite the rough finish to his college academic term, he was drafted in the 7th round of the 2001 NFL Draft by the Buffalo Bills, playing briefly in the league.
- Later Life: Germany returned to The Ohio State University through a degree-completion program to earn his bachelor's degree in 2015. He later transitioned into business as a franchise owner of Crumbl Cookie locations and local athletic trainer.

“And welcome to Crumbl!” Reggie Germany shouts as customers walk into his Crumbl Cookies location. He suits up to make sure his customers are taken care of.
Germany is the franchise owner of the Crumbl in Centerville, the first one to open in the greater Dayton area. And now, he’s opening even more locations across the state.
