Houston area QB with 4.63 GPA will graduate with an associate degree; eying elite universities

Houston C.E. King quarterback Kameron Kincheon has a 4.63 GPA and will graduate high school with an associate degree thanks to his school's Early College program. Schools like Harvard, Yale and Georgetown are interested.

We’ve all been there, down the Twitter rabbit hole and into the abyss of weird dance crazes, Michael Jordan crying memes and enough pictures of food to make you nauseous.

That is not Kameron Kincheon’s Twitter timeline. His feed reads like a college resume.

His bio: “C/O 2021. Dual Threat QB. CE King. GPA-4.63. 40—4.88. SAT 1220. ACT 20. Class Rank 18/637 Top 2%. 21-6A Honorable Mention QB.”

His pinned tweet is a screenshot of his Academic Achievement Record.

Scroll past the countless videos of him working on his QB skills and you’ll find a tweet of a business card his father made for him to hand out at the Area Conference for Top Teens of America. Seriously.

The senior-to-be QB from Houston C.E. King just gets it.

“Growing up, academics was always first with my parents,” he said. “It has always been a major part of my life. Knowing what good grades can do for you, I’m trying to set myself up for college. So I’ve made that a focal point. Colleges like to see good grades on transcripts.”

Indeed they do, which is precisely the reason for that particular pinned tweet, often a place where those hoping to get recruited share their highlights.

“Every athlete is going to post their highlights,” Kincheon said. “College coaches are going to check that. Having grades as the first thing you see checks off one of the boxes that you have. I just want to get that out the way. If they know I’m good academically then they can go see what I can do on the field. It makes it easier on them.”
