Paul Finebaum Names College Football Quarterback He 'Envies'

ESPN college football analyst Paul Finebaum recently spoke on the current state of rankings ahead of Week 2.

After several ranked programs debuted their season, Finebaum shared his thoughts on the top teams in the nation, focusing on the SEC.

Finebaum sat down with Ole Miss Rebels quarterback Austin Simmons, who entered the season as the starter for the SEC team. Simmons took over for Jaxson Dart and he departed for the NFL, joining the New York Giants.

When speaking with Simmons, Finebaum mentioned that he envies Simmons. The former blue-chip recruit graduated from Ole Miss at 19 years old and now has just two classes while serving as the Rebels' starter.

"I know it's difficult for a lot of players because they're going studying," Finebaum said. "You have already graduated. Which I envy you. I cannot imagine being in that town, on that campus, with a degree already in my back pocket."
