Going pro to take minutes from TT in the UFL? RS is a nice kid but he has no chance to play at the next level regardless of his speed.

The nice thing about the NFL is that they pay those scouts and assistant coaches good money and they're good at what they do. If a player has the talent and can contribute to an NFL team, he will likely be drafted or picked up at some point.

I'm not talking about him playing at the next level.

I'm wondering what is going through his head. Seriously.

Miles flies over, says some stuff, "Look, I know you're frustrated. Stay with LSU, you will be used more than you have been, etc"

I have no idea what was said but I'm guessing it would be along those lines. So now he stays and.....

He gets a 78 yard TD run against Towson. You don't see him the rest of the game.

I saw him on the field, not counting on special teams, once in the Florida game.

Last year he had 7 rushes. 7! For the entire season.

See what I'm getting at?

I know none of us will really know but it does make you wonder. Or it makes me wonder.

Why stay? For what? So I can sit here and play one down a game?
