No way he leaves early imo. It will be a blessing have him back next year to make a run at a championship

He is a redshirt.
He wouldn't be leaving early.
We are asking him to come back for his fifth year.

you're all about this, huh?

do you not understand that the widely accepted use of the term "leaving early" implies that someone is leaving before their athletic eligibility is expired?

College is 4 years.

It isn't specific to each athlete.

Normal is 4.
Redshirt is 5.
Early is 3.

I could have been on the 10 year plan at UGA. College was fun. But you get the degree to get a job.

Hot Rod is not ready to go pro. Only generational kickers even attempt that. Plus he choked on his last kick. Does he really want to go out like that?

I predicted that he comes back after his poor performance the past 3 games.

But I'm pretty confident that he was determined to go prior to those 3 games.

He has a handler. And that handler is looking to maximize Rodrigo. Not maximize the time for the Dawgs.

You can make a ton of progress on a masters in 12 months. Would be stupid to not go for that.

Especially a kicker...don't think they strain themselves too much over winter workouts or spring ball
he'll more than likely go Summer semester.
