I think that's a great idea. It would be interesting to know what the exact reservations are. Perhaps after he has said his peace, you can subtly ask questions to determine if he is biased against acceleration/early entrance college.
After re-reading your post, I see there is a personal relationship as well. Maybe tread lightly here.........perhaps this will make him more open to the early entrance idea.
Our school district seems to take a stance that they'd rather accomodate in the age level grade than skip or subject accelerate.
There are a lot of things I love about our principal, however, I know of two incidents in which he gave wrong info to parents purposefully to submarine attempts at grade skipping.
