Typical idiocy from some local "source." Dude isn't playing in the bowl, he isn't coming back, he's going to go get paid.

I can't in good conscience root for the dude to come back. He's battled through plenty of injuries already, no need to risk a serious one. Go get that $.

100%. If they player wants to take the insurance policy and the coaching staff thinks he's worth the NIL dollars, duh.

The risk:reward just doesn't make sense for any NIL that is reasonably conceivable if he's an early round pick

He should go and responsible adults will advise him the same.

That said, He’s a different dude and I won’t be shocked if he returns.

Him plus Haselwood and Thompson would be nasty

Trying to buy him for a year? Smart move! Hope it works out - he's an amazing player.

If I'm Burks, I'd be pushing for any NIL to stay being close to in line with my expected rookie signing bonus. He got banged up in games this year. Not sure a million dollar NIL or deal or somewhere around that would be enough for me to risk millions if I got hurt.

He's a 1st round pick, no NIL deal will pay him more then a 1st round contract.

Zero chance he comes back.

There is no rumor about this. He is gone and CSP knows he's gone. They had a meeting last Friday to discuss the bowl game. Burks will play in the bowl (even though family members want him to opt-out). They also talked about the bowl game being his last game as a Hog.

If you’re a projected first rounder, you go to the NFL. You only have so many good years left playing. Especially in the SEC, why take many more hits?

he’s going pro unless he just does want to go pro. if money is supposedly what is keeping him around then he’d be better going pro.

I would tell him.. "Go. Go and get paid."

Unless it comes out that he's a serial killing cannibal he's going fairly early and making a lot of money.

I'd love to have him back next year. But a tall, fast, and good hands WR is like Viagra for old men in the NFL. Everyone wants it.

As expected. He’s leaving.
