Rueben Randle for starters
Meh. He'd still be outside of the 1st even if he came back and put up a 1,000 yd season. LSU suffered more from him leaving early than he did.

Could Randle have stayed sure, but you really could say that for anyone unless they are projected in the top 5. The reality is Randle is doing well in the NFL this year so, you could make the argument he did the right thing because he is getting a lot of playing time and making an impact.
It does suck when the studs leave early, but look at Bama's defense last year it is just part of the program if the kids get a chance to take their trade to the NFL and make a living that is what they are going to do. Look at poor Marcus Latimore. You can make arguments both ways, but the reality is it would be nice for these guys to think of their education along with their athletic's but the lure of the cash and the risk of getting hurt have to way into the equation.

No way you can say that for sure.
There was a very good chance that he could have pushed himself up in the draft with a big season.
