Recently, Micycle McCormick has been spotted on the set of the next season of Cosmos, the famous astronomy/science show hosted by Neil DeGrasse Tyson. A little known fact about McCormick, the star quarterback for the Colorado Yeti, is that he also has a Masters of Science degree in astrophysics from Rutgers University and is planning on going back to Rutgers when he retires to finish up his PhD. The rumors for now about his appearance on the popular science show seem to aim at an episode about human evolution and physiology, and how humanity managed to become so uniquely versatile as a biped mammal. Some leaks showed clips of him throwing a football to Dr. Tyson.
What CAN be confirmed is that Micycle is slated to appear as a guest on Dr. Tyson's famed podcast/TV show, Star Talk during the offseason. The episode, which has already been taped, has the title, "Sports and Science: Enjoying Both!". Dr. Tyson, while obviously having his PhD and being the director of the Hayden Planetarium, was also a great wrestler in high school and college, even lettering in his senior year at Harvard. The two are sure to discuss the challenges (and benefits) to having passions in both science and sports together!
