Watch out, Penn football team
A friend forwarded this along yesterday, and we must say the Penn football team sure is going to have some trouble stopping this man's ground game:
As Brown senior running back Nick Hartigan prepares for the Ivy League season opener at Harvard, he has become an amazing candidate -- for both the Walter Payton Award and a Rhodes Scholarship.
When all is said and done in his career, if you multiple Hartigan's rushing yards by his grade-point average, the result might well be the highest number of all-time. (Obviously, this is not a statistic that anyone has -- or will -- ever produce.)
As my friend said, "I guess he plans to rush for infinity yards the rest of the season."
Quite the candidate [Ivy League Sports]

maybe his GPA will be infinity, producing the same effect.

Unless things have changed since I went there in the 1920s (well, it seems like that long ago), the highest GPA you can get at Brown is 4.0 (so I was told, anyway).
So if he rush for 2,500 yard this season (unlikely), the means that 10,000 is the greatest number ever known.
Who knew!
