Morris Claiborne Is Wicked Smart


Yahoo – Former LSU cornerback Morris Claiborne, a likely top-five pick in this month’s NFL draft, scored a four on his Wonderlic intelligence test at the NFL combine. That’s four. Zero-four. Four out of 50. Usually those two numbers bring to mind Tim Tebow’s passing stats or the Oakland Raiders won-loss record, not a score on a test where a mark of 10 is considered literate. The NFL average is 21. The public average is 24. Vince Young, the most popular failed Wonderlic test-taker in NFL history, scored a six. Terry Bradshaw, a guy who “couldn’t spell ‘cat’ even if you spotted him a ‘ca’” got a 13. Wonderlic scores are supposed to remain secret, but these things always have a way of getting out. This bothers Claiborne’s agent Bus Cook, not necessarily because this will hurt Claiborne’s draft stock (it won’t) but because it reflects terribly on the agent.

Here are the 2 example questions they give on wikipedia
When a rope is selling 20 cents per 2 feet, how many feet can you buy for for 30 dollars?
Which of numbers in this group represents the smallest amount? a) 0.3 b) 0.08 c) 1 d) 0.33

I know I said I wouldn't talk about the NFL and technically this is about football and Claiborne is yet to join the Nazi Football League. My biggest question is, how the hell did LSU get this guy to pass classes. Getting a 4 on this test is basically like being retarded. Do I think this will hurt him when he goes and plays at the next level? No. Defensive players are supposed to be dumb anyways, so who cares he's still a top 10 pick.
