Former Ohio State QB Cardale Jones: Georgia's Stetson Bennett 'wasn't playing school'

Jones graduated from OSU in 2017, the same year Bennett redshirted his rookie year at Georgia. next a season at Jones College, Bennett returned to the Bulldogs in 2019 and took over as the team's starting quarterback the next year. In 2021 and 2022, he guided Georgia to back-to-back national titles.


That implies he attended college for six years. Bennett was a Learning Design and Technology major at the Mary Frances Early College of Education, according to his bio on the Bulldogs' website.


The 2023 spring graduation program for the institution did not include Bennett's name. Additionally, he was left out of a photo of 2022 winter semester Georgia football grads. Concerning whether Bennett had received a degree, the institution had not yet provided a response.


A nominee for the 2022 Heisman Trophy, quarterback Bennett concluded his collegiate career with 8,429 passing yards, 80 touchdown passes, and 21 interceptions. He finished fourth behind Alabama quarterback Bryce Young, TCU quarterback Max Duggan, and Ohio State quarterback C.J. Stroud.
