First time poster...been a lurker for a year or so and love this board, and hope this first post doesn't come off poorly, but it caught my attention too much not to inquire.
I found this quote from Kelli in the above linked article impossible to believe:
"All of our cheerleaders have their bachelor’s degrees and 10 have their master’s degree"
How is that possible with girls making the team fresh out of high school? For instance, I know Breelan was 18 and fresh out of high school when she first tried last season, 19 when she made it this season, and that's only one example. Not a knock on any of the girls, but you get your bachelor's when you are 22-24 in most cases with full course loads.
I agree there is an often poor and unfair stereotype towards cheerleaders, but assuming common sense applies here and several do not have their bachelor's yet, Kelli mis-representing doesn't help.
Anyway, love the board, love the show, love the team.
