They use LSU to go to the league and LSU uses them to try and win championships. It is astonding how many of you think that these players shoul stay for .... what reason again??? They are in a position to acheieve their goal and they took it. End of story.

Couldn't agree more 
Let's add that Minter already received his degree as well.

Just like all of the juniors and redshirt sophomores from Alabama, UGA, Texas A&M, Southern Cal, Ohio St, Florida St...
Oh wait, no school in the history of the NFL draft has ever lost 10 underclassmen before. What a great accomplishment for a team that finished the year the 6th best rated team in its own conference.

And we pay Miles 4 million dollars to get them to stay as long as possible

so you are trying to say that these athletes aspire to be professionals?
So when they graduate, after redshirting, they don't want to play another year in college, for free, instead of being paid to play in the NFL?
crazy talk

Like UK Basketball.
I am fine with this model, especially since they HAVE to stay at least 3 years

LSU recruits players with the selling point that you can get to the NFL. It should be no surprise that kids come to LSU and leave for the same reason.

Yep. Most players come her for a chance at the NFL....not to graduate.

And 6 of them were actually at LSU for 4 years!

Exactly

I think it's funny how LSU fans like to spin the loss of all these players into it being such an awesome thing how many guys we put in the NFL.
If it were Bama I can assure you Tiger fans would be blasting them about everyone "jumping ship" for the pros.
Yes, I think it shows that we have great talent and I hope these guys can make some money for their family, but is it a good thing when all these people leave? Esp some that could be better off by waiting.

Which players would drastically improve their stock by staying another year?
