Re: Stanford Cardinal (NCAA 12)

Cardinal dodges early departures
Browning, Lueders, Carrington all set to return in 2013

PALO ALTO, CA - It's going to be hard enough for Stanford to replace some of their graduating seniors. Guys like Shayne Skov, Trent Murphy, David DeCastro, Jonathan Martin, Terrence Stephens, Tyler Gaffney, Levine Toilolo, and Sam Schwartzstein were crucial pieces in the resurgence of Stanford football over the past few years, and will be sorely missed next season.

Thankfully, the few who flirted with leaving early have opted to return.

Cornerback Barry Browning, outside linebacker/defensive end Blake Lueders, and corner/safety Devon Carrington all explored the possibility of going to the NFL a year early, but all three thought otherwise and will return to The Farm for their senior years in 2013.

Running back Anthony Wilkerson was widely believed to be the biggest early departure risk, but he said he never seriously considered leaving, and will return as the #1 back in 2013.

Backup safety Jordan Richards is exploring the possibility of transferring.
