If it were me, I'd likely go. But I will say this, I've never met in person in my life who regretted an extra year of college. It really is the most fun years of year life, and you have the rest of your life for football to be a pain in the arse, humorless job. This is the last is the last year football could be genuinely fun to play.

That would legitimately weigh heavily on me. But top ten money is top ten money. But I also believe there are things more important than money.

I'm gone. I get he wants to come back and win a championship, but let's be real...LSU isn't winning a NC next year

Even a minor injury could knock him out of the first round.
NFL teams weigh every little thing when they are looking at you.

Go Pro without hesitation.

I would do exactly what he did. Play in the bowl game then announce I'm going Pro.

He is one of my favorite Tigers of all time and I wish him nothing but the best in the Pros.

If only all college athletes could carry themselves on and off the field like him it would be a much better game.

It's more about getting to the 2nd contract one year younger. Owners/gms much more likely to guarantee money to the younger player. Even more so in the case of rbs and lbs imo.

Injuries or a bad season could lower his draft rating. The financial loss from an early to late 1st rounder or second rounder are too great.
