Quick conversation with NCAA #1 tennis player, Johannus Monday from University of Tennessee.

[@christophercasey7388]

In the part about staying or not for a 5th year, he never mentions the benefit (or possibility) of getting his degree. Shows his priorities and why he's there. A little unfortunate really.

It is a very short conversation. He is a really wise individual. I am sure he understands the benefit of his degree, but we were talking tennis.

Firstly, I am just about to graduate with a Political Science degree with a GPA in the high 3’s. Secondly, I did consider my degree when making that decision, there is a clause in my scholarship offer that allows me to come and finish my degree at any point in my life, whilst being on the same scholarship that I am on currently. Hope that helps 👍🏻
