Wow, I didn't expect that. Not really a bad thing unless you're a team in good position to draft him.

With the uncertainty in the NFL about next season it's hard to blame him for staying. I mean Barring a bad injury, I don't think his draft Stock is going to drop and he's only going to get better.

I don't blame him. There may not be NFL next season, gonna get a degree from Stanford and it's not like he is struggling to make ends meet on the financial end(Dad played 10 years in NFL).

Re: Early Entries Thread

I wonder if Luck staying will have any effect on Harbaugh staying at Stanford.

Good point.

I think there were a lot of reports that were saying that Luck was leaning towards staying, but nobody honestly believed those reports.

I respect Luck's decision for sure. Pretty ballsy passing up all that money, but more power to him.

Re: Early Entries Thread

I wonder if the potential NFL issues had any effect on Luck staying though.

I can't imagine passing up being a top 5 draft pick though lol.

Re: Early Entries Thread

Virginia defensive end Zane Parr is making the jump.

Collective OS reaction: "who?"

Krioniq's explanation: if he came back, he'd be a fifth-year senior on a rebuilding team; now is a good a time as ever for him to even try to make the NFL. He has a bit of a reputation as a pass rusher, which will at least give him a look, but I'm not sure he's anything more than a practice squad player. I'd put him in the 6th round, at best.

UConn running back Jordan Todman announced after the Fiesta Bowl he's going pro.
