I'd say it's just as impressive for a guy/girl to maintain a 3.0+ GPA while still being a part of a D1 athletic program...people know the demands placed on these athletes and to me, it just adds that little extra shine to where if a job comes down to him or the guy who simply studied day in and day out to get the 4.0 GPA, the employer is gonna take the athlete.

Simple answer:nobody remembers the honor grad.
everybody remembers the all american.

Complex answer: Athletics in general and football in particular teaches many intangibles that the classroom doesn't. Teamwork, discipline, work ethic, and character just to name a few.
