SIAP. Kid's making a mistake,IMO. Won't get any higher on the boards than he is now.

I don't know why he would return, no way he gets touches over Montee Ball.

Needs to get his degree. I think he's only like 6 credits shy of an engineering degree. It would be ashamed to leave that on the table.

He has 6 years to finish that. At 6 credits, that's two classes, which could easily be done during the offseason.

Montee Ball is a damn fool. Why's he going back? He won't get near as many touchdowns next year and Wisconsin won't be in national title contention with Wilson gone. Is coming back for a 9-3 season in a split back field really worth giving up a few hundred thousand bucks at least next year?

Maybe he really enjoys the college experience

I know I would have loved to go to school for one more year. I will say though, I didn't have a million dollars waiting on me if I didn't though

I guarantee you that essentially every NFL market has better quality and a higher quantity of poon available than that in Madison, Wisconsin.

He's not getting any better or younger....he will only be wearing down for one more year. Huge mistake.

you really shouldnt leave early if you are a 3rd or 4th rd pick, unless you are steven ridley with an injury history or better players behind you that could possibly pass you up. just imo

Well he won't be contending with Richardson and LaMichael James in the 2013 draft so this might not be that bad of a move.

Dumb move. Teams will just load the box next year and dare Wisky to pass. Don't know who is behind Wilson, but I guarantee he's not close to as good. Plus, he could always finish his degree during the off-seasons anyway.

Bad move for his career, but I like the decision. I kinda am enjoying a tiny trend of big names staying a year or two more than they need to. Helps the college game
