That said, we may all have some feels next season if, Mr. Wiggins, does the same. lol

Nevertheless, it seems like a sensible business decision.

I haven't been paying attention to how much 1st round NFL draft picks got paid. But since Greedy Williams sat out yesterday, and he has been mocked @ #5 overall in a few drafts--- I looked up to see how much the 5th overall pick got in 2018.

$17.9 million signing bonus. $17.9 milion! In a dangerous sport where you run the risk of a severe injury on any play, then I have no problem if a player wants to sit out of a glorified exhibition game to protect their draft stock. It's their life-- they have to do what's best for them. They can run their life however they want. And like MC said-- it seems like it's a sensible business decision.

And if he is getting $17.9 million thanks to the training he received from the university, he should have no problem refunding the part of his scholarship he failed to fulfill.

Considering seniors have already graduated by the time bowls have been played, and Fall Semester has already ended...the players dont owe the school ****. They will not be enrolled in the school for Spring Semester, and therefore they fulfilled their side of the scholarship.
