Sorry if Germans, traveling & can't search....

You guys think Jarvis or Odell give a second thought to coming back next year? Highly doubtful, I know...

If Jennings has a great bowl game, then likely those two had a great bowl game as well. So no.

IMO, there decision has very little to do w/perception of jennings. I think that decision strictly gets made over projected draft stock

U think how Odell and Landry play in some garbage bowl will be a factor in their decisions?

One of these days a kid is gonna surprise us and come back for their sr year. Might as we'll be one of those two. They are solid citizens and great tigers.

I think they've probably made their decision- I think their draft stock would be better if they stayed another year. Are they projected 2nd round?

I think Jennings will be a very good QB at LSU, but i really hope people give him realistic expectations as a first time starter.

For 99% of players, their draft grade is dispositive of their decision. If WRs think that the next year's starting QB improve it, they come back.

I don't see how having a mobile QB will improve their draft grade, so I think they are both gone.

This draft is full of Receivers, but I think jarvis and mike evans are 1A and 1B in this crop. ODB could come back and help himself though

Keeps defense confused- maybe giving some opportunities for single coverage.

Not that it means much but most mock drafts got OBJ ahead of Landry

I think the way players view returning is as follows:

1- What's my draft status?
.
.
.

.
2- Do we have a shot at a NC next year?
.
.

3- Do I want to stay in college because I love it?

That's pretty much it.

One of them would need to get a round 2-3 draft grade.

You should prepare to cut the young man some slack. He is a true freshman and has played one very good series of college football at home against a crappy team. I hope he eventually becomes at least as good and consistent as Herb Tyler or Matt Mauck, but don't jump on the bandwagon too quickly, folks.

I wish we woulda watched him all year run the offense on drives against teams we had beaten....

We wouldn't be all speculating and the WRs would know what we had too..... Going into their decision.......

I wish we could change the attitude from gettin in and leaving for the money to staying and winning championships!!!!

If only last yrs defense woulda known what we had for them on offense this year......

If only those guys didn't know about the millions of dollars they can make in the NFL and that programs like ours are a freebie farm system that feeds the NFL at no cost to it. The $$$$$$$$ have just gotten too big. Suppose Mettenberger were a running back and he tears up his knee in the last minutes of his last game as a senior in college. Think someone like that might have wanted to leave a little early for the N$L? I don't like it either, but sad as it is, it is the business we have chosen.

No, I said it wouldn't matter. Those two are gone. Best decision they can make since signing with LSU out of HS.
