I'll pass, but appreciate the 'heads up' on absurdity, etc.

I'm sure a ton of NFL teams are beating down the door to take a guy #1 overall who hasn't played a football game in 2 season.

I will not contribute clicks to that nonsense.

The media never misses an opportunity to wail about how terrible and unfair college football and the NFL treats players.

The WSJ is trash.

I do find it interesting that nobody is calling on Tua, or any other stud QB, to sit out next season. Wonder why that is?

Not sure I'd want to draft a guy who skips a bowl game. No ME in TEAM.

Well, nobody with a functioning brain in their head (i.e., not the MBA's who read WSJ for other than laughs) would think there was more "value" in keeping an "asset" undamaged, and on the shelf for two years, than in the tremendous gain in experience, maturity and skills he would accumulate in two years of quality play.
Injury is a risk you have to take if you are going to participate. A guy could preserve himself uninjured all through college and go out with an ACL the first day of NFL camp. Just live your life and get the most out of it -- sitting out doesn't do it.
