Shazier's going for the money...second round grade or otherwise.

I don't think so, as he's not a hardship case like a lot of these guys. His family is comfortable, so imo, money isn't the sole factor in his decision.

Curious. Do you honestly believe Shazier would risk another season at Ohio State if a multi-million dollar NFL contract is waved in his face regardless of his family's financial situation?

In other words you think he may have more loyalties to Ohio State than to his own financial future?

I dunno?

All I'm saying is that there may be other factors besides the money that could weigh into his decision. With some kids it's all about the money 'cause it has to be. With Shazier's family situation, he doesn't have to worry about taking care of his mom and 8 siblings, or his own kid and baby momma. That's all I was trying to say.

Hearing just the opposite. Hearing his dad is now starting to contact agents.

I expect him to go pro, just wouldn't be surprised if he stayed.

I don't see him coming back. I also can't blame him for not coming back. I want one more great game from him on Friday and if he decides to leave for the NFL I will cheer for him as long as he plays. If he comes back I will love to see him back in the Shoe!

Usually when you present something as fact you do. Otherwise you say it is your opinion. Don't get your panties in a wad.

It's a fact that it's his opinion, so who does he cite?

You can all say "cool story bro" but I happen to have personal contact that he is leaning towards staying. He is talking with some draft consultants and tonights performance could have some impact he's being told.

To be fair, the same can be said for most draft eligible players.

I have a feeling he will have a typical Shazier game, which will push him out the door.

Yeah Shazier has looked bad.

Need a brand new secondary next year, never seen a group so bad in my life.

Based on their play in this game, both Miller and Shazier stay...that being said, I'm betting they both go...jmo

Agree, sadly.
