RE: Austin Opting Out
Does Austin have much chance to be drafted? I would think not but maybe. If he's getting his info that he will be drafted, I suppose it's worth his sitting out for a nothing bowl like Hawaii. On the other hand if it were me, I might like a free trip to Hawaii. Now if he decides to come back next season, then as a fan I'm not liking that decision - and as a coach I might not allow it.

If he sits the bowl game because of risk of injury----how is playing the senior bowl any different ---is injury in the senior bowl prohibited ? Just asking ?

So are entitled snowflakes who what to criticize kids apparently.

Are you speaking from experience ----he is a grown man--old enough to fight and die for our country

The coach and player worship on this board blows my mind

I thought we were first and foremost FANS OF THE UNIVERSITY-MEMPHIS TIGERS

I suppose it is OK for him to risk injury in the senior bowl ---but not a scheduled TIGER game---or any of the TIGER games in the past for that matter

Leach was right---so was the school last year that charged the players that opted out

You are the snowflake pitching a fit about the kid but have no problem with coaches doing it.

You see I see the player and the coach as the same...So if I aint mad at the coach for leaving I shouldn't be mad at the player.

No coach or player worship...I just don't feel I am so entitled to watch him play for Memphis that he should ignore what is best for him...

You know like some snowflakes complaining about their feelings on here.

You call me a snowflake LOL--that is laughable coming from you of all people----are you still in elementary ---you attacked me ---not me you--I just responded ---put me on ignore

Lol...

Did I ever say you attacked me...Man snowflakes around here I swear...Put your big boy pants on.

Challenge 'em and they don't want to talk anymore. 03-hissyfit

You are in full baby mode because you won't get to watch him play in the Hawaii bowl....REALLY. Again if you were consistent it would make sense...But you are not.

No, I don't see much difference other than he's hoping the senior bowl is a try-out of sorts to help him at the next level that also involves association with agents, pro coaches etc. His decision is becoming more the norm, unfortunately, but I won't lose sleep over it.

Yes he could and probably will get drafted. He will need a good senior bowl week and a good combine but so does everyone else. It doesn’t hurt that Memphis has three, arguably four starting caliber skill players in the league right now.

I just don't get it...

Coaches have been leaving early for decades to prepare their new team for the next year...Essentially doing what is best for their future.

The head coach who made promises to 80ish kids to get them to work hard and produce for him...But when he gets a chance to cash out and abandon those promises everyone seems ok with it. Everyone knows the only reason Silverfield is still here is these kids didn't produce enough to get him a bigger check.

Now that the players are treating this as a business as well everyone has an issue with it.

I just don't get the double standard.

Hey---if he wants to quit-fine---but he is no longer apart of the team----why reward him by giving then a trip--he quit



As for the coach that quits---do we still pay him--reward him--I hope not---the players wanted to be treated like a business you say-----well coaches don't get perks when they quit--neither should players get perks when they quit--JMO

I don't care if Halas/Lombardi/Stram/Landry are there -he still risks injury by playing----can't have it both ways

If he is going to risk it by playing in the senior bowl---then he should risk it by playing for his school--that gave him the exposure in the first place--by now all the scouts know his strengths --JMO

I don't care if Halas/Lombardi/Stram/Landry are there -he still risks injury by playing----can't have it both ways

If he is going to risk it by playing in the senior bowl---then he should risk it by playing for his school--that gave him the exposure in the first place--by now all the scouts know his strengths --JMO

AGAIN calling names and insulting EVERYONE---the MODS are watching you ---your time is fast approaching again

Hawaii Bowl = Senior Bowl

If he's getting his info that he will be drafted, I suppose it's worth his sitting out for a nothing bowl like Hawaii. On the other hand if it were me, I might like a free trip to Hawaii. Now if he decides to come back next season, then as a fan I'm not liking that decision - and as a coach I might not allow it.

If he sits the bowl game because of risk of injury----how is playing the senior bowl any different ---is injury in the senior bowl prohibited ? Just asking ?

We all love it when you go the extra mile to make a fool of yourself...

Hahahaha

As much as the bowls have cheapened --I would say that the Hawaii Bowl far exceeds the status of the Senior Bowl--for the single reason that the MEMPHIS STATE TIGERS are playing in it

I can't say that I have ever watched the Senior Bowl--but have never missed watching the TIGERS in a bowl

Therefore --Hawaii Bowl >>>>>>Senior Bowl and it's not even close

Yes, the same number of scouts will be watching you at either game. Genius.

Man you just help can't help yourself can you --slur after slur after slur

I wonder how many MEMPHIS/Ala/Mich/Ohio St/LSU/Penn St/ Sou Cal/UCLA/ND etc etc fans will be glued to their sets watching the prestigious Senior Bowl---as opposed to the bowls their teams are in

Do you really think the scouts don't already know the strengths and weaknesses by now of all the players in the Senior Bowl----IMO if you are opting out of your teams bowl then you should opt out of all so-called all star bowls as well --why risk it--they already know you anyway------------and if the truth was known in the NFL teams boardroom --they probably deem a player that would skip their own teams bowl------as a player that is --LESS THAN A TEAM PLAYER
