4. Earn his degree

Travis Etienne was very clear to the media that he wanted to complete his degree.

The junior will now have the opportunity to do that by returning for his senior season.

While many don’t believe completing a degree on-time is all that important, it should certainly be noted that this is a high-priority for many others.

Etienne will have a chance to achieve his goals academically without having to return to school later in life and that shouldn’t be understated.
