Great comparison. However, just for argument's sake, let's look at your infallible reasoning.
We require doctors and lawyers to go to school and get special licensing because we want to protect THE PEOPLE they contract with, NOT the lawyer or the doctor themselves.
Now, let's see if Jadeveon Clowney's situation is comparable.
Requiring Jadeveon Clowney to finish another year doesn't protect anybody health or legal concerns. In fact, requiring Clowney to finish another year doesn't protect anybody for any reason. You could make an argument that you would be protecting Clowney from himself, but that would be rather patronizing.
Now, back to the drawing board you go.

Those are just two professions that people relate to well.
The point is that just about every profession has barriers to entry that exist for a number of reasons. Just as Clowney wants to make money, people on the other side of that barrier have their financial reasons for making him follow the three year rule.
It's really not that difficult to figure out.

Poor argument
Do you only eat at a restaurant if the chef has attended culinary school?

Isn't that the exact same reason they want football players to be 3 years removed from high school?
