Talk around campus that Sammy may return next year.


Dec 2, 2013, 1:28 PM

Per a somewhat reliable source: Sammy has said that if Cole is the undoubted starter next year at QB then he will heavily consider staying. He said that Sammy has said many times that since Cole is a good passer, he would return. I don't know how accurate this is but the guy saying it around campus is involved with the team so who knows. We can only dream but I'd love to have #2 back.

Sammy is right Cole is the best pure passer in the ACC

That is right the ACC.

Re: Talk around campus that Sammy may return next year.


Dec 2, 2013, 1:36 PM

Cole is an excellent passer, and runner, and so is Kelly, and Watson will be. Don't forget Scheussler. Sammy should stay to leave a real mark at Clemson, and it seems to be helping him mature. I hate that Hopkins left, but it obviously was a perfect time for him as he got a year to shine while Watkins grew up and battled injuries.

flag link military_tech thumb_downthumb_up

That doesn't sound like something...


Dec 2, 2013, 1:36 PM

one of Dabo's players would say.

I'd guess if Sammy was considering returning for his senior year it has more to do with what's best for Sammy. When and if he decides to return to the team he'll be all in and ready to do what's best for the team.

Personally, I think he'll return to graduate and take a shot at the playoffs.

Re: Talk around campus that Sammy may return next year.


Dec 2, 2013, 1:38 PM

He needs to look at what happened to Arron Murray, Marcus Mariota, Jeff Driskel, Zach Mettenberger, Marqise Lee, Keith Marshall and the list goes on and on and on.

As Eminem said in 8 mile, you only get 1 shot....

Dec 2, 2013, 2:04 PM [ in reply to That would be about the dumbest thing he could possibly do*** ]

Clemson, I would have. They have insurance so he could be set even if he gets injured.

"Anybody that says Coach Brownell is the best coach to come through Clemson is going to start an argument." -JP Hall


The insurance doesn't get anywhere close to his potential


Dec 2, 2013, 2:06 PM

earnings with endorsements and all the rest.

2024 orange level memberbadge-donor-15yr.jpg flag link military_tech thumb_downthumb_up

You are correct in that insurance won't cover his top end


Dec 2, 2013, 2:20 PM

potential.

The reality is that insurance can in fact protect him against realistic earnings.

Contracts are not guaranteed in the NFL, and a many of first round picks are out of the league without earning up to potential.

He should not stay, but insurance can mitigate the risk appropriately.

flag link military_tech thumb_downthumb_up

He will make more in endorsements than his NFL contract.***

2024 orange level memberbadge-donor-15yr.jpg flag link military_tech thumb_downthumb_up

He is GONE!!!


Dec 2, 2013, 1:41 PM

He will go in the first round and maybe the second WR taken and Cole is not proven one thing to this point that he can light it up like boyd did and for Sammy to take that chance would be stupid on his part!
Wait until the agents blow smoke up his rear and shower him with gifts...Sammy is gone for sure!

flag link military_tech thumb_downthumb_up

Most likely right , BUT people thought


Dec 2, 2013, 1:48 PM

CJ, AE and Boyd were gone too. Dabo seems to have a knack for getting players to hang around. I'd say , there's more of a chance of Sammy staying than Bryant staying. With 2 kids already, MB will feel the need to take care of them.

choose Clemson and love it here. At U$uC, they can't wait to leave U$uC and Cootlumbia.

There is something in those hills.

There is $hit in Cootlumbia.

badge-donor-05yr.jpg flag link military_tech thumb_downthumb_up

I'd be shocked if he returns


Dec 2, 2013, 1:42 PM

can't recall Dabo ever saying a player should go, but he's said as much with Sammy, that he's clearly ready. We've been surprised before, but this would be the biggest of all. He's a top 10 pick

flag link military_tech thumb_downthumb_up

I don't think its true, just relaying the info I've heard.


Dec 2, 2013, 1:44 PM

And plus, its something to get our minds off of the coots. Whatever he chooses, I'll still love Sammy the same way and wish him the best of luck.

If you look at the numbers,


Dec 2, 2013, 1:51 PM

They are basically the same as Hopkins career numbers.

Hopkins Rec 206, Yds 3020, Avg 14.7 TD 27
Sammy Rec 224, Yds 3164, Avg 14.1 TD 25 (Plus another 300 or so rushing yards and 1 TD)

Hopkins was a 1st rounder and is doing really well in Houston (in spite of their QB sucking).

Sammy is no doubt a 1st rounder and should go.

Re: Talk around campus that Sammy may return next year.

He needs to go get his. Seriously, I loved having CJ back don't get me wrong, but he needs to be playing on Sunday. There is no reason to risk it.

Why are you speaking in third person, Cole?***


Dec 2, 2013, 1:54 PM



2024 student level memberbadge-donor-05yr.jpg flag link military_tech thumb_downthumb_up


No way. He's gone and he needs to be gone.


Dec 2, 2013, 2:05 PM

As much as I'd love for him to do it (selfishly) coming back would be an incredibly stupid thing to do. He's going to get a huge payday soon, and it's a sure thing if he doesn't get a career ending injury in the bowl game.

Come back next year and you put that in jeopardy. You never know when you are going to get Marcus Lattimore'd. It'd be a terrible shame for Sammy to never see the NFL.

NOT FUNNY if you are just baiting us...

...There is NOTHING I would want more than to see the "No Assembly Required" man sporting the #2 for one more year!

I understand the lure of the $$$$$, but to have him take the Tajh route of enjoying the college game 1 more year, would be music to my ears.

I don't think it will happen, and I hate having my chain YANKED!

Let him talk to CJ...CJ came back for his SR year...


Dec 2, 2013, 2:18 PM

...he could have walked with ease, and CJ had a h311 of a lot more of a risk at RB than Sammy.

One of the proudest moments for me to see was CJ getting a standup ovation from the faculty as he received his diploma.
