I disagree with the posts that says that you have nothing to offer Harvard; that’s crazy. The drive it that it takes to be a professional athlete is exactly the kind of leadership that Harvard looks for.

I agree with an earlier poster that you might want to try out Harvard Extension for a while to elevate your “academic game” up to the level of your soccer game so that you can effectively hold your own at the highest levels of academia, get the most out of the experience, and contribute intellectually to those who are already at that level. But once you do, I think your experience, perspective, drive, and attitude would benefit any college classroom, and I can’t imagine someone like you not being able to do it. Harvard or anybody else would have to be crazy to reject you.
