College sports eligibility is such a weird thing. You can forego your college years to play a professional sport, then return to college and play a different sport with no questions asked. He's ten years older than the other freshmen on Arkansas roster

He’s a walkon for football. 10 years is a long time away from a sport, this may be the last we hear about him.

He’s not the first one to ever do something like this. Tyler Stoval drafted by the Braves out of high school in the 2nd round. Part of his indictment to go pro instead of going to Auburn, was that the Braves would pay for his college once his baseball career was over with.
Graduated high school 2008, signs with Auburn to play baseball and football. Gets drafted in June and decides to go pro. Plays 5 years pro baseball and returns back to Auburn as a football player at 23 years old. He then becomes the backup QB, and the place holder for Auburn special teams. He graduated Auburn when he was 28 years old.
But pretty cool people don’t give up on their dreams and can actually go back.
