re: Will we see a trend in CFB with true sophomore's opting out and training for draft?

There are 5-10 juniors each year in a similar spot.

Not really. There’s that many guys that have that kind of talent and have people looking at them as bonafide locks but most everyone of them still has something to prove

That season last year was insane, from production, to winning. Coming down off that high is bound to disappoint, especially with Burrow gone.

The other reason Chase is just in rare air here is that he did all of that I mentioned above in a complex NFL type offense and did it against elite talent week in and week out

He’s answered all the questions on the test. He doesn’t need to take the SAT again just for fun.


Then you add in that this is a very unique situation where 2/3rd of college teams are likely not playing any way so sitting out isn’t going to be an outlier that teams will really be able to hold against you.

It really is just a perfect storm that lead to this in a lot of ways. There will be others but it won’t be something that has a massive impact on CFB.
