[HighSchool Fan]

let me answer this for VY. if he's gonna possibly play for houston, he wants to fit in.

[SWMustang]

Dan Marino scored a 14 and Ryan Leaf scored a 27.

[GreenMonster]

A 6??? My 3 year old could have scored a 6. I knew VY wasn't the brightest crayon in the box but a 6 is rediculous. He better take a few practice tests and go try again. Speed kills in a test like that. You can get all of them wrong and just fly through the thing and score higher than a 6.

[sinton66]

Some of the best footballers I've ever seen have been dumber than a box of rocks. Football knowledge/physical prowess and book smarts do not necessarily equate.

[Chief Ohera]

like i have said all along, this guy is a goat when it comes to grammer and intelligence, i mean can you score any worse, it's so bad that's it's embarrasing.
he may do well in the NFL but he won't be a great qb like all you bandwagon jumpers on here think, just b/c he had one good college season everyone has falling in love with this cat,
he should have stayed in school and got more of the Hippie grammer and style from the Austin community,
so my brothers and confidents,
that's all i have for now so stay tuned

and until next time...............
your buddy the CHIEF

[Gobbla2001]

That's right, next to a QB's stats it always mentions the wonderlic...

You may not end up being the best NFL QB ever, Vince, but I wish you the best and hope you prove everyone wrong...

And you're talking about HIS grammar??? That's the most jacked up sentence I've read today...

GrammAr???

Spelled with an A!!!

I'm not the best at spelling or anything myself, that's why I do not critisize people for their spelling unless they're like you... You critisize him for his bad grammar etc... yet you come on here and do a horrible job yourself...

I bet Vince Young could burn you in the SAT!!!

"Everyone HAS falling in love with this cat", BWAHAHA!!!

[HighSchool Fan]

what did lawerence taylor make on the wonderlic test? he doesn't seem to bright but he had a pretty good football career. once the training camps start, that test is forgotten. if you don't think so, without looking it up, what did the #1 pick in the draft last year make on it?

[AggieJohn]

LOL What a goober! That has to be the funniest thing I've read in a while. Grammer???? LOL

He scored a perfect 50.

[STANG RED]

IMO, this test means very little. If it did, Ryan Leif wouldnt have been the complete washout he was.
There is no test for mental toughness that can me administered by anything other than real life. And mental toughness is what seperates the men from the boys.

[HighSchool Fan]

if everyone could just see the writing on the wall. the score he got has a meaning. the meaning is this, everytime i touch the ball, i'm gonna get what i got on the wonderlic. :D

dunno what Vince was studying, but it isn't uncommon for schools and colleges to provide tutors to keep their athletes eligible.

[kaorder1999]

vince young would have made his grades anywhere...superstars always do

[sinton66]

I wasn't speaking about Vince in particular, don't know in his case. I know of others that had tutors, just saying it's quite common.

IF someone told me that I could be making over a million dollars a year when I finish college (or in this case leave early) if I continued to impress scouts with my athletic skills, and I knew the only way I could continue to impress them was if I passed my classes, I'd damn sure make it happen... wouldn't you???

I've known a few people in my life that have passed all of their classes, yet talk/act a lot worse than Vince Young...

Why is everyone surprised that he passed his classes anyway? The guy wasn't going to school to become a doctor... he took what he could to get those millions he'll soon get...

lol...well I doubt it but Ryan Fitzgerald (formerly at Harvard, now playing QB for the St Louis Rams) made a 50 the 2nd time he took the test. The first time he made a 37.

[HighSchool Fan]

Kevin Curtis, st louis rams, is the active player with the highest score the first time around. he scored a 47 or 48.

[Phil C]

Vince does have great football savy and that is most important. Did you notice on the winning td against USC how he held the ball and was walking without emotion while others including the mascot were celebrating? He kept his head while some of the others didn't. Some posters on other threads thought he as dumb and didn't know what to do but he knew exactly what he was doing and was in total controll. He didn't want to wish getting a 15 yard penalty on the kickoff for excessive celebration.
A 15 yard penalty would have been very helpful to USC and one big gain like Bush made from the 33 yard line and they would have been in field goal range with a good chance to send the game into overtime. Once again Vince was Vince and saved the day not just on scoring but on avoiding a big penalty.
Way to go Vince. Come on Texans! Draft Vince! You will be glad you did.

[Phil C]

Hey 66 I wonder if these same Vincent doubters would be criticising him if he hadn't gone pro for not going for the money. Actually they might have been moaning! LOL

[sinton66]

If it was ANYBODY else at any other college, they'd be claiming not to care if he was a genius or not, just happy that he knows how to play football. The jealousy of the UT program is pathetic.(pretty transparent also).

[TMer25]

Charlie Casserly the GM of the Texans said earlier this evening that the report of Vince's test score being a 6, is completely false. So I guess the bashers of Vince will need some new ammo.

is there any way texans can get Leaf to give it one more try?
Any body that scores a 27 HAS to be a great QB. apparently he just had bad coaching. Kubiak should be able to put him over the top.

I got 13 out of 15 right on the sample test. Then again I wasn't on the clock.

Turns out I can do the math with #'s 11 and 13 no problem but can't look at #'s 4 and 5 and get it right... and I'm a journalist. Always thought I sucked at math but was great at English.

In high school I ran a high 4.8. Ran three times the summer before my junior year and ran a 4.84, 4.90, and 4.87. ;) One decade and 60 lbs. later I'm probably about as fast as RM's dial-up.

Let's say in my old age I bench 160 on a good day, run a 5.4, can throw the ball all of about 55 yards, am 5-9, 225, and scored a 13 out of 15 on a fake, untimed Wonderlic. Anyone want to draft me? I'm very lienient on the terms of the contract and will even throw in a fishing rod and half-used pack of Orbit gum. It's spearmint-flavored.
