Who advises these kids to leave early?

Even with Turner, they were saying if he would've came back, he was looking at 1st round possibilities

waiting risks not being drafted, like chris faulk. strike when the iron is hot.

what's the saying, one in the hand is worth 2 in the bush?

they blind these kids with dollar signs and many of them come from nothing and think the star life is in their grasp. They jump at the slightest opportunity now and it is starting to catch up. These stories of leaving early are starting to become less grand than when it blew up with the new structure of the contracts. The draft is being flooded more with early exit players increasing the pool of players in the draft leaving more and more of these players praying for a UDRFA call instead of getting drafted.

It's actually smart to leave early now and you'll see less and less players going back for their senior year regardless of their draft potential.

It's because the rookie wage cap. A players money now comes in their second contract whether you are a 2nd rounder or UDFA. So the faster you get to the second contract, the faster you get your money.
