Also, underclassmen requesting NFL Draft evaluations for early entry into the NFL Draft are down roughly 42% from 2013.

Maybe our guys, aside from Sammie Coates, will take notice and do what's best for them and the football team.

I hope so. If we can get Duke back and keep our LB core together we will be set for next year. If they leave we wills struggle

If you are likely to go in the first round, you go. If it looks like the second round, you have a 50/50 decision to make where you have to consider how pressing and critical it is to get paid a year sooner, even though there is a good chance it will be less money. Potential second rounder really has to look at if they are early second round and how deep their position pool looks in the next years draft as well.

If you are not 95% to get picked in the 1st or 2nd and you don't even consider it period.

Damn! Any idea what his GPA was before he left?

Blackmon is another player who should have stuck around longer.

No but heard that from an athletics department official that he wanted to come back and that he wasn't going to have the grades. Add in having a daughter and 1+1=2

I don't buy that. He would've had all spring and summer to raise his GPA back above the required minimum. That's a load of horseshite if you ask me.
