Report: LSU WR Ja’Marr Chase opting out of season

LSU star wide receiver Ja'Marr Chase has informed the team that he is choosing to opt out of the 2020 college football season to concentrate on his professional career, sources close to the situation told CBS Sports.
A formal announcement is expected Monday with Chase, the nation's top returning wideout, declaring for the 2021 NFL Draft. "It's 100% happening," a highly-placed source close said Sunday.
Sources said Chase's decision is not specifically related to the COVID-19 pandemic. Rather, it is believed agents may have simply convinced Chase to leave before his third collegiate season.
NFL rules state a player cannot be drafted until three years after his high school graduation. Chase, a rising junior, will become the most notable college football player to opt out of the 2020 season.
The unanimous First Team All-America selection set SEC records last season for touchdown catches (20) and receiving yards (1,780). He won the Biletnikoff Award given annually to the nation's best receiver.

Says Agent convinced him
F u c k ing A. $limey bastard$
Why can’t the school just buy him an insurance policy that covers the guaranteed money a top 5 pick would likely get and let’s roll on ?
Such bullshite. So much for #WeWantToPlay

If true, this is fricked up due to the timing of it. 4 weeks before the season starts and he quits on us. He’s a legendary player and I like the guy, but it doesn’t mean I have to like his decision.

Please don’t melt, people
He was a joy to watch, but the talent at this position is so deep and so exquisite that I don’t think it will matter at all.
If there is one position that is easiest to replace, it’s this one

The new norm, even before the pandemic, we were slowly headed down this road. I got blasted for this years ago, but I'll say it again: a college football coach's job is to convince players to stay/return and keep them on the field. I realize it's a balancing act of convincing recruits to come here for an easy path to the NFL, but they've also got to squeeze the most playing time they can.

Sucks but he was a All American on an NC team,

With all that’s going on I’m thinking about opting out myself.

Strange timing but I can’t be mad at the young man.

He’s not a legendary player
He could have been coming back. He’s not

Jamar Chase had no business playing another year of college ball anyway.
Get paid Jamar and kill it on the next level, we still got the horses to compete
