He was dinged up for one game. Yes, he stayed healthy. That's not a big deal.

And don't even try to bring up an education. That means nothing in the long run, especially if you are a first rounder.

just curious, are you like 14 or 15 years old?

Staying in school can be a bad idea

Staying in school can be a bad idea

if your draft value has maxed out.

Also, if you go to the pros early, you can always go back to school and get your degree.
Isn't staying in school and getting the degree the best thing for both of these guys? Yeah they can start making serious money in the NFL but what if they get seriously injured? Football isn't forever. There's life after football, and if you don't have a degree to fall back on, you're kinda screwed in this kinda economy.

Plus, is everyone forgetting about the impending lockout that may happen?

This is so dumb it pisses me off.

Yah its dumb. Ask all the washouts if they wish they'd stayed. Sure you can come back, but once you are drafted there is no going back for your eligibility. And once you are out in real life there are very few that want to go back after they have had a taste.

Tell me whats so dumb about what I said? There are countless of examples who thought they were all that and ended up lugging baggage at the local airport.

If I remember correctly you can enter the draft/play pro sports and continue your education.

Why don't you read post #54?

I did, and you have yet to make a coherent reply besides "This is dumb" and "Go read someone elses post!".

I'll say it slower for you... Yes...you...can...go...back...but...the...chances...are...you...won't. Neither Floyd or Rudolph is going to hurt themselves by staying another year.

1. You're confusing my ideas with those of others. I never suggested that they would come back for their degrees.
2. I already explained how in football, your health (and draft status) is never guaranteed.
3. Did you not understand the point of post #54? It explained exactly why your post is dumb. If you read it, why are you asking if your comments were idiotic?
4. I'm done if you're going to waste my time by putting words in my mouth and ignoring my statements because you realize that you were wrong.

A well-mannered Notre Dame response which serves us all well. Surely an apology from me to you is warranted. due to the smiley face---

Noone knows what they will do, I don't think they even know. I wouldn't be shocked either way. My gut tells me one of them comes back, most likely Floyd.
