Miller Moss: A 4.3 GPA and a star quarterback—Is he the future of college football?

After waiting behind Williams for two years, Moss got his opportunity at the Holiday Bowl, and it’s fair to say that the young QB just ran with it. Six TDs and the Holiday Bowl Offensive MVP later, Riley found his man for a life beyond Williams. While Moss’ performance on the field received enough limelight, not much is known about his high school years. Here is everything you need to know about the high school attended by the Trojans’ QB.

While not much is known about Moss’ academic performance during his high school years, it’s futile to think that they would be anything other than extraordinary. It’s not a blanket statement. It is based on his USC years. Normally, Students tend to four years to complete a four-year degree. Moss isn’t a normal student. Having joined the college in 2021, Moss graduated from USC in 2023, just 2.5 years after joining one of the most prestigious educational institutions in the US. Rather than receiving his diploma with his batch, Moss walked the stage with the 2019 class. 

Even in terms of GPA, we can make a similar guess. After 2.5 years at USC, Moss earned a law degree. Along with that, his GPA stood at greater than 3.7. Combining that with a minor in finance and a Renaissance scholar can give you a sense of his academic excellence. We haven’t even mentioned all the department honors he accrued during this time.
