Good for him. Looks like he has a lot of room to move up on the board.

Good. Colleges are taking advantage of the really good athletes. No reason they should put their bodies in harms way beyond what is necessary to get into the NFL if that is their goal.

I'm glad I don't watch ESPN. This is all they are going to talk about from now until the championship game.

Huh?
If that's the case, he should want to take any chance he has to play on national television. Unless he knows his max is a 5th, 6th round pick.

need to know if he has a kid and/or ankle injury before I am outraged or not.

He's gotten into a lot of trouble this year so he could just be suspended.

I don't blame these kids. If I was playing in some mid-tier BS bowl I wouldn't play either. What's the incentive? ESPN and the Universities are making millions off of these kids.

This is a non issue unless they start skipping the college playoff

Since when do we give a damn about meaningless bowl games?
Let me know when athletes are skipping the playoff games, then we'll have a story.

No. The teams can get tape of all of his games. Skip the meaningless bowl game and start preparing for the combine. That's where he's going to move up or down the board.

I understand.

Saw on Twitter he was the 19th best RB available.
He needs to prep to combine day.
ETA: if he even gets an invite.

The coaches quit after the 6th win and earning the bowl eligible bonus. Shock had issues with some of the coaches and hardly played. Hope he gets a chance in the NFL.
