The Philadelphia Eagles have successfully made it back to the Super Bowl after losing in heart breaking fashion in 2022. Their opponent will be the very team that beat them two years ago: The Kansas City Chiefs.
Running back Saquon Barkley has had one of the greatest seasons ever for a running back. Now he is going viral for his college GPA.
In advance of Barkley’s first Super Bowl appearance, his college GPA has been a topic of discussion:
Saquon Barkley Was Just as Effective In The Classroom
Back in college, the New York native was a stud both on and off the field, with Penn State head coach James Franklin revealing he had a GPA of over 3.0.
I think Saquon Barkley is a perfect example of what we’re doing, he showed up on campus and all he did was embrace everything that we asked him to do,” Franklin noted in 2017. “He has over a 3.0 GPA. He is humble, hard-working. He’s appreciative. He is kind. He’s also 5-11, 220 pounds and runs 4.3.”
The star rusher graduated from Penn State as part of the 2022 class, having majored in Communications.
After starring for Penn State, the New York Giants drafted the running back second overall in 2018.
He racked up 3,843 rushing yards and 43 touchdowns while adding 102 catches, 1,195 receiving yards, and eight touchdowns in 38 games for the Nittany Lions.
Having signed a three-year deal worth $37.75 million with the Eagles last year, he quickly became their most potent offensive threat, helping them return to the Super Bowl.
