19-year-old Quarterback Austin Simmons Graduates From College Before Starting For Ole Miss
Before Austin Simmons takes over for 2025 first-round NFL draft pick Jaxson Dart as Ole Miss' starting quarterback this fall, he will have already graduated from the university.
The 19-year-old graduated from high school with a 5.34 GPA at 16, allowing him to enroll at Ole Miss two years earlier than expected. Now, the former four-star quarterback in the 2023 class will have earned a college degree before starting his first game, before turning 20 years old.
