Would Clayborn have stayed with an ending like this? I really think these two guys change the team in huge ways. I hope they stay.
If one of them goes, I personally think that McNutt would benefit more from it. Teams would love to have a 6'4", 215 lb receiver with 4.5 speed and good hands, even if he needs refining. He might not have a ton of success if he goes in raw, but he'd get paid based on potential (see: Troy Williamson, Derrius Heyward-Bey, etc.). I'm not sure if Sash really has much more room for growth as far as physical skills goes.
Both guys could use another year to fine tune some things........I don't know the dynamics behind the scene it seems both guys will be losing a lot of their boys, their buddies on the team and I could understand if they are contemplating moving on themselves.
Tough call.....It wouldn't hurt either guy to do their "homework" get a feel from scouts, talk to parents, talk to KF and staff and make a decision accordingly.
could be an NFL lockout.
with the looming collective bargaining agreement, i doubt their will be any early departures-- if your doing it for money - than it contradicts basic business sense. Plus next year we improve our record and I will believe we win the Big Ten (west) division and play in the inaugural Big Ten Championship Game.
See I love this but I also think of myself as a broke college kid who wants money. I know they get more if they wait...but when you were that age that was not so big of a factor. I also agree that they most likely wont leave but this year has not helped.
I think there will be very, very few underclassmen going pro this year. With the potential NFL lockout, I don't think players will take the risk. Same goes for the NBA. There was a reason a record number of underclassmen that went pro in both sports last year; the risk of a lockout is way too high.
(Note: I personally think there is about an 80% chance that one of the two leagues sees a lockout in the fall of 2011. I think there is a 25% chance both sports lockout. I pray I am wrong.)
