re: You have to believe that all the good people around Devin White are telling him to go Pro

Apparently, you have never dealt with an insurance company on a serious claim. It is not as easy as "I slipped in the draft, write the check."

He should go pro. If we happen to slip up or lose a game or two, he may end up sitting towards the end of the year and some of the trash on this board will talk shite.
Excuse me for going off of what YOU said

I’m sure the school can set him up with something legit legally.

If I was White's advisor I would tell him to go. As an LSU fan I want him to come back. He would become a legend.

He will get paid nicely whether he stays or goes.
He has played 3 years and has not had any major season ending injuries . Of course his horse could kick him today.
I'm not sure the money will affect his final decision. He's a special player.

Last mock I saw had him going 22

This is the problem.... He is taking a huge chance coming back................ If he does ...great..... BUT................... IMO he should go while his stock is so high..................

They're buying a policy. The policy has terms and conditions and measures of damages. It is not as simple as some people think. It is not a 2 line document that says if you get injured you get $2,000,000 (or whatever the number is). That's simply not how the industry works.
He will have to prove the damages. Unless he is completely prevented from ever playing football again it will likely be 2-3 years, if not more, before he recovers anything and it will likely be less than the policy limits.

quote:that's just awful reasoning.
- He will still be a top 10/5 pick next year
- Get the degree
- Win a Natty for your state
- Same amount of time in the NFL either way
- no guarantee of that if he gets hurt
- he can finish school later
- we're nowhere close to winning a Natty, much less the SEC West
- just dead wrong. You can't beat Father Time. Staying in school one more year is a year of NFL earnings he'll never get back.

Huh? That's the point you think I'm making. A body has so many seasons in it. Regardless of which league they are in.

Have you seen this guy? Hes a physical specimen, he wont get hurt. He does the hurting.
You may want to ask Michael Brooks about that logic.
Selfishly, I want him to stay. Logically, he needs to go.
He's already a Tiger Great, and I cannot imagine the struggle he's going through making this decision.

An investor friend told me many years ago, "Take your profit as soon as you can. You never know what will happen tomorrow."
One of the best pieces of advise I've ever gotten.
Posted on 1/9/19 at 2:12 pm to TigerCliff777
I understand and would respect his decision to stay.
But absolutely no one other than selfish LSU fans is telling him he should stay.
Everyone who wants what’s best for him and his futures would advise him to go.

Is there some rule people like you keep referencing that says if you’ve Ree the draft after your junior year, you are barred from ever returning to school to complete your degree.
Has no one who left early ever finished school later?
Please tell me

Yes. People saying that he SHOULD stay are selfish assholes.
