Seniors do Matter

If there was ever a case for the value of having seniors, all you have to do is watch Miss. State. We need more guys like Lael Collins and Glenn Dorsey who play their senior years at LSU. It matters. Early entrants to the NFL are killing us. Why do so many players think that delaying their entry to the NFL for one year benefits them so much?

These are student athletes and they should be required to stay in school for four years to earn their degrees.

But players leaving early is good!!!!

I don't blame some of these kids for leaving early, but it's undeniable that the wave of early exits have really set back the program.

Gone are the days you expect guys to stay 4 years. Don't redshirt talent, develop them early because they'll be gone in three.

Because they can make enough to pay for 5 college educations in one year. It's not a difficult concept

Yep.
Can you imagine how bad MSU will be next year though. That is why I hope they win the West. They won't hurt us in recruiting by winning a championship. They are going to be one and done, and awful next year....plus they will likely lose their coach next year to Florida.....Also, their fans aren't nearly as arrogant as Ole Miss.

I'm not going to blame any guy for jumping to make big money and live out his dream, but a lot of our guys would be worth it, to stay another year. It helps us out, and helps them out.
Collins is still rated as a first round draft pick, and prior to this week, has been the only bright spot on the offensive line.

1. Pitch to recruits they can get into the NFL
2. Win 9-10 games a year, play in an average bowl game. Blame the 2-3 losses on players who left early
3. Lose more juniors to the draft
4. Repeat

1. If you get injured while on contract in the NFL you still get some money, If you get injured in your 4th year of school you get nothing
2. Some don't like being in school. They may not seem ready here, but the extra year just focusing on football is big for some of them.
3. A lot of the players we talk about are redshirt juniors, so they have spend 4 years here. we really can't expect a good redshirt junior to stay

Maybe they don't believe in modern day slave labor and want to go get paid for their talents.
