per the IVP:
In addition to his current success on the field, Thompson is a true student athlete, setting a goal to repeat last season’s feat of being named to an Academic All-Big Ten selection.
“I take my schoolwork very serious and I definitely want to make it again this year,” Thompson said, noting that Minnesota also takes academics seriously. “Here, they have subject tutors and mentors and they will help you any way they can … There is a great emphasis on education and I feel that if you fail here, it’s because you didn’t try.”
No need to be concerned about Thompson, because with his attitude and aptitude, failure is not an option.
