Hey Tom Sorenson,
frick off.. I'd prefer to not turn CFB into the shite CBB has turned into..
No way do I feel sorry for a guy that only has a 5-6 year NFL career. He has a college education and would have made more than I will in my lifetime..

dumass writers who've never played a down of football gonna be dumass writers who've never played a down of football.
People who have played, and love, the game, know and understand that you play the game because you love the game, you love the contact, the competition and the action. It's like anything in life. The first time you fear something then it gets the best of you.
If Clowney were to sit out a year, or even if he takes-off plays and does not live up to his potential ... then he'll lose status and, more importantly, he'll lose face amongst his peers.
He's not that kind of person.

The whole story is a method for instituting the same policies that have screwed the college basketball world.
One and done would likely cause a drop in talent like has happened in the basketball world. Not only should football not change, basketball should more closely align with the football rules.
This X 1000. The one-and-done rule has fricked college basketball royally.
Please let's not screw up football too.

Should Clowney Sit Out 2013?
Only the Florida game, apart from that, no...

It's not unprecendented. Clowney sat out for the LSU game last year.

Sorry but these men are putting their lives on the line for your enjoyment. They have every right to take advantage of the gifts, talent and hardwork they hold to the maximum benefit possible. The NFL and the fans take advantage of top notch college players by enforcing delayed entry into the NFL. Adrian peterson was ready. Randy Moss was ready. Clowney was ready. The NFL lowers their risks by making players prove themselves in college before they invest in them.

This.
What's with all the LSU fans saying he didn't show against LSU? He had 6 tackles, his 2nd highest of the season, and 2 defended passes. Hell near the end of the game he was running down players in the secondary because he seemed like the only one on defense who was still given it their all.

Why just Clowney? Why not Manziel or Bridgewater or Matthews (I've seen the first two mocked ahead of Clowney lately due to QB demand)? Or any person w/ an above avg shot of going in the lottery?

This is the dumbest idea ever

Good point. I think he should totally sit this one out. I am only concerned for the safety and well being of Mr. Clowney.
Posted on 2/12/13 at 1:00 pm to Dro
Why all the hate by LSU fans? I dont get it.

Apart from the fact that he’d be out of sight for 2013, some coaches and scouts may have concerns about a guy whose love of football has been overcome by his own financial interests.
This is why nobody will ever sit out and be successful in the NFL.
