I read an article about Mike Leach going to Mississippi State and it mentioned he taught a class about Football while at Washington State. It got me thinking about a major in Football and how it would look so I put together a curriculum. It should be open to any student, with the exception of participation in Game/Practice labs which would be reserved for members of the football team. Would love to hear feedback from the TKP community.
