It may be a bit pre-mature to enter this discussion, but who besides Mo Claiborne is a possibility to declare for the draft as a Junior this year for L.S.U.??

I would think that it would benefit RR to play another year, especially with Mett at the QB spot. If he is as advertised, RR could become a very high draft pick.

If RR goes then RS needs to step up.

Problem is when you see guys like Broyles go down with ACL tears it makes him wonder if its worth the risk.

How about a guy like Sam Montgomery

Text Dmitch, he said theres no truth to that. Period.

Let's put this rumor to rest until Rueben decides what's best for his life and career.

Top Draft players should be given incentive to stay, like a $5 million insurance policy in case of injury.
Not like the schools aren't making millions off of them.

That's actually a good idea. I wonder if they would go for it. Is it even allowed by the NCAA?

While I 100% agree with this I think he can come back and have a Glen Dorsey or Nick Fairley type year and put himself right up there in the top 15 picks......although if he gets the feeling that he will be a 1st round pick this year then he would be crazy not to go.

Any athlete projected to be chosen in a professional draft is technically eligible for insurance through private insurers such as Lloyd's of London. Most schools discourage athletes from purchasing insurance policies unless they are projected as early-round selections. The NCAA offers a program to elite, draft-eligible athletes in football, men's and women's basketball, baseball and men's ice hockey. In football, athletes are eligible if they are projected to go in the first three rounds of the NFL draft. In basketball, baseball and hockey, players must be projected first-round selections.

* Price: A $1-million, 18-month policy purchased through a private insurer costs about $15,000; a $5-million policy about $100,000; a $10-million policy about $200,000. A bank loan for the exact amount of the premium can be arranged with payment due upon the signing of a professional contract or completion of eligibility. A $1-million, 18-month policy purchased through the NCAA's ESDI program costs about $10,000 to $12,000. Football players projected as first-round NFL draft picks are eligible for up to $3 million in coverage; basketball players are eligible for up to $4.4 million. A bank loan for the exact amount of the premium can be arranged with payment due upon the signing of a professional contract or the completion of eligibility.
