I hope so. The Browns could use him.

Why would he have stayed through the year of probation, if he was not planning on coming back for one more year?

I can see the point where he would stay..for the chance to win a national championship. But I can also see why he would go pro...best season yet, stock can't get much higher, Kalil probably leaving.

I think he goes.

Kalil already announced he is leaving as did Nick Perry.

I think he goes. IMO he'll be at worst the 3rd QB picked.

Lot of chatter that he will be coming back. Didn't get a very good report back from his NFL evaluation.

The fact that he is having a "special announcement" at 4 could mean that he is going to stay.. You dont figure anyone would have a special announcement just to disappoint people, but then look at Lebron.

He's a top 10 pick easily. Not sure what evaluation he's hearing. Though, every interview I've heard from him (probably 3 in the last 2/3 weeks) he's not tipped his hand in the least. I still think he goes.

TJ McDonald had a presser yesterday announcing he was coming back. Leinart did the same when he came back. Not sure how announcing you are going back to school would disappoint people.

do you not have any reading comprehension? I said the fact that he is having an announcement means he might stay. If he was leaving, it would disappoint people, which is why I used the Lebron reference. SMH

Yeah, and I heard on the Cowherd show this mroning it's at a USC campus building.

Ah did misread your post. My apologies.

Luckily there is no precedence for people announcing via press conference they are leaving early at SC. Other than Sanchez and Bush, which both had their pressers at Heritage Hall.

Maybe he's announcing that he's going to play for Wisconsin next year while he goes for his masters? (sarcasm for those who can't pick up on it)

But seriously, I'm betting he stays.

Arizona St was playing well at that time in the season and USC wasn't. USC and Barkley got a lot better and ASU didn't. really not that hard to figure out.

Herbie and Brent Musmurger are drooling already and we will hear that USC will be in the title game all next season.

USC is loaded for next year, why wouldn't they be in the conversation?

that musmurger must be a real jackass

and if it was drooling for lsu, you would be creaming your pants. nice double standard.
