Title: Is this a new trend?
Post by: hscoach on December 19, 2016, 10:27:07 AM
I see McCaffrey and Forunette are not going to play in their bowl games to prepare for the NFL.  Listen to this guy.

Well it might be but it sounds kind of iffy to me. If my teammates work and we make a bowl game I would like that last play of the college to be at the end of the season with the guys. RTR!

If it's a minor bowl game, yes I expect more players to opt out for the NFL.

So, most likely you have played on a free ride for 3 plus years and now the most important game of the year for the team and you are a no show? I hope the NFL shuns them!

I can see it maybe for Fournette. ESPN says he is still suffering from the ankle injury. But I think it's a pretty sorry thing for McCaffrey to do.

 #-, Hey I agree with you 2. It is bad for McCaffery but Fournette being injured I would not play and do more harm but if I could I would finish with my teammates. RTR!

I would say it's financial security over a worthless bowl game. Getting injured could cost a player $$$ millions and millions of dollars. I get that.

Actually heard on the radio today Drew Rosenhaus, NFL agent, said players should play in the bowl games.  I really thought he would go the other way.

Baylor RB joining the group.  Didn't know they had a running back of any merit.
