American Sports Scholarship degrees

[AreYouShittingMe]

Not sure if I'm posting this in the right place.
DS due to take his GCSE's this summer. He has a few options with regards to next steps. His current goal is to try to get a football scholarship to a US college. Does anyone have any experience of this?
I've looked online but struggling to make sense of it all!

They also don't offer medicine as an undergraduate degree, nowhere in the US does. If he wants to be a doctor, this is not the best route.

I taught a boy who was a footballer and on the books for Birmingham for a year straight after his GCSE's. He is now at Butler University in the US playing for Butler Bulldogs. If you Google them you will see one player comes from the UK. He was a very smart student.
