Not trying to start no mess Ace, I was just wondering. Hell I'm 31!

Thing is I figured I woulda been 18 going into my freshman year. If I redshirted ...
RSFreshmen Year -19
RSSophomore-20
RSJunior-21
RSSenior-22

NFL Draft roll around April...I'd be 22! I graduated HS at 17 and I know most folks prolly graduate at 18 so just add another year. At most he should be 23 I feel. :question:
