Sit out the bowl game so as not to risk a multi-million dollar signing bonus, but have to pay the school back $20-30 grand, not a lot of thought need to go into that decision.
The scholarship is awarded under the condition that you play football. Not playing is in a sense defaulting on that agreement.
You always hear the players sitting out say they're making a business decision, well this would allow them to make a business decision well before the bowl game. Don't like the terms of the scholarship, then don't sign and be a walk-on

I hadn't thought about that, but I agree. Seems fair. If you want to leave at the end of the year and allow your scholarship to go to someone else then so be it, but to just say "I'm done" right before the bowl game is just crappy for his team mates and a breach of the agreement made when he accepted the scholarship.
