I was in Dallas at that time and he was the stud of the state. Hell, he was bigger than most NFL RB's as an 18 year old so the NFL's "body not ready for the rigors of the NFL" is BS. They just didn't want to piss off college in general and OU specifically.What part of East Texas are you in? AP played 9 miles north and tomorrow is Jeff Wilson day here in town. We are having a parade!
I think it's a joke. If they're going to let the NBA basically gut college basketball, why not the NFL? A lot of these kids need the money to help their families and 3 years in the NFL vs in college, getting nothing but experience, could be a boon to them. With the preponderance of Sports Management majors, I don't think the business world is missing out on a bunch of scholars.
