Just amazing. Nassib not only had the highest wonderlick score, he had the most sacks of an defensive player in all of college football, and he did so missing the last three games of the season due to injury. He's got the size and speed of anyone on this "TOP 10" list. Yet, amazingly, he's not on the list. Some very narrow, perhaps jaundiced, agenda driven opinion.
 
Okay. What is the test supposed to measure? I had to take it about six years ago.
I actually think it's a test of analytical skills....it seems more appropriate for testing someone wanting to be a scientist/engineer as opposed to poet/football player. That said, scoring below 15 or so has to make some people wonder about a base ,evil of intelligence.
