Poll of The Week: Did Missy Franklin Make The Right Decision?

Yes! I love Missy. She has so much more in store for her career. We never had anything like Pro swimmers back when I was swimming. It’s a good thing for her. She’s not dropping out of college, just college swimming. good for her!

Only she can answer that question.

She made her decision for her reasons not for us to question. Leave the kid alone

Time is money. Aging =/= sportsman’s career. Ncaa is too small for her level. If you win a Olympic medal on your sixteenth is because you’re something serious. She tried Ncaa also, she didn’t skip it, and got 1 championship. It’s what champions have to do. Turn pro. Good for her.

Yes! She can go back to college. Swim while you can!!!!!

ONCE A CHEATER….ALWAYS A CHEATER !

Why should we judge her and how could we? Go missy!

Swimming is nothing but a minor sport, not a professional career. Look at Michael Phelps who attended the Univesity of Michigan, was not able to compete at the NCAAs due to his non amateur status and endorsements, and ended up witout a education, degree , and a buch of laurels. Even Gary Hall Jr. never finished University of Texas nor needed a degree. It’s her decision not to have a college degree and go for the money.
