Some of these comments are pathetic:

Do any of you know for sure he will get his degree in just one more year? He may come back and still not get a degree.
Or he may graduate in May. He redshirted, so he's been at LSU for 4 years already. What are you saying?

yeah if he's not close to graduating, then he's not going to graduate if he stays another year most likely
and he's majoring in general studies. 1 year on the practice squad (which is his worst case) is like 3-5 years of GS salary

My post wasn't about what Lafell should do. That's a pointless discussion. It was about whether there is any news regarding his final decision. I'd appreciate any legitimate response. Thanks

I am saying that if he took the minimum (12 hours) each semester, then he would have 120 hours at the end of his 5th year. Is that enough to graduate? I dont know, things have changed since I graduated from there.
Point is there is no guarantee that he will graduate even if he comes back another year

So, you weren't looking for "Coors Light Cold Hard Facts" type of information (AKA predictions and opinions)?

5 EST is coming up in 5 min, doesn't look like Lafell is coming back

He could blow it out first week in the NFL, earn not much, get put out of the NFL, then he has no college degree.
Terrible argument.
The argument for him to stay is that he'd make more money coming out next year.
The cost to finish his college degree is miniscule comparitively.

Exactly how much do you think that people on the practice squad make?

in state, around 2700 (for commuter, no meal plan)
out of state, I think like 6400

how much do you think a general studies degree from LSU will be worth in a major recession?

why not?, it's always beneficial to have some kind of backup plan
btw, major recession is a depression fwiw

Do we know for a fact that he had to change his mind by 4?
Posted on 1/18/09 at 4:59 pm to lsumma09
Yes Lafell is gone he hired an agent.

Well the deadline was 5 pm est thursday to enter draft. There's a 72-hour grace period after that to withdraw your name...you do the math
