jmilrod · Answer

He&#x27;s a rich punk anyway&#xD;&#xA;definitely not worried about the $&#xD;&#xA;I agree it&#x27;s the wrong decision, especially when they lose Harbaugh, they won&#x27;t be a nat&#x27;l contender next season

jmilrod · Answer

but you can&#x27;t blame him for not wanting to play for the Panthers

14daroad · Answer

sagebrush,note that you can&#x27;t respond to the point.Want to take a guess as to why that is?

HutchEmAll · Answer

With no CBA signed, this is a HUGE gamble.  It&#x27;s likely the new CBA is going to have some sort of a rookie cap and the top 5 picks aren&#x27;t going to make nearly the money they have.

gutcheck · Answer

You guys crack me up, you bitch and moan all the time about the millions of dollars these guys make, then when I kid decides to stay at school, you bitch about that. There is nothing wrong with him wanting to finish school and get his degree. Regardless of what the pay structure is when he comes out, he will still make millions of dollars and will be set for life. He is doing the right thing.

Agree with ya man...isnt there going to be a rookie cap in 2012 as well......Ohio St better start looking for that next QB gem cause Terell Pryors wallet just got fatter, whos is he kidding making people think hes coming back to sit out 4 games next year...give me a break

sagebrush · Answer

well said gutcheck&#xD;&#xA;nothing beats person in college...

dawgsrock · Answer

he did not want to play for the Panthers Denver will lose every game next year and draft him then did you see Elway on sidelines?

14daroad · Answer

gutcheck,I&#x27;ve never complained about the $ athletes make. Additionally, he can go finish his degree any time in the future.This is beyond stupid. What if he breaks his leg next year?What if he breaks his neck?It is costing him about $30 million that will never be recovered.

14daroad · Answer

It is funny, there is a thread below about a player being paralyzed.It is funny people can&#x27;t understand how dumb this is.

pickemgood72 · Answer

I agree, it&#x27;s not the best move financially.  What happens if you has a career ending injury in college?  He&#x27;s not obviously concerned about the money issue...If that was me, the second the bowl game was done, I&#x27;d make myself elibible for the NFL...but then again it&#x27;s his life....

gambling-devil · Answer

Totally agree !!!! Not to mention they might not be as good as this year if Harbaugh is leavingVery stupid decision.

Thats the only argrument you put up. Money money money. Maybe the kid doesn&#x27;t care, maybe his family has tons of money, maybe he is about to inherit a bunch of money. We don&#x27;t know. But, like I said, he doesn&#x27;t seem to care. It is costing him about $30 million that will never be recovered.[/Quote]

dawgfanatic · Answer

i dont know about how much national tv attention he got this yr anyway i live on the east coast and i think stanford was on 1 time. by coming back every game will be on tv and he will gain another yr of experience he's only played 2 yrs

GAMERS · Answer

screw carolina even if they get the #1 qtbk they still would suck!!!!!! jimmy clausen is good enough, it&#x27;s their defense and o line, time for a change... oh yeah and that coach

G-Men22 · Answer

Although his father is an AD he doesn&#x27;t make the same as a number one overall would make. He will never be any hotter than he is right now and if not carolina this year it will be the worst team next year and whose to say that the qb position might not be what&#x27;s wrong with that team. Any dip in his stats or injury could affect his draft status and money next year.I live 30 minutes from Stanford and believe me the degree is not even an issue,better hope Cam Newton doesn&#x27;t win back to back National Championships

Peewee2820 · Answer

I am guessing Andrew&#x27;s people are in the know about the LOCKOUT for 2011 so he may as well play at Stanford, finish his degree and be the biggest man on campus ever. Not sure what all the fuss is over.

14daroad · Answer

dawgfanatic,the Oregon/Stanford game was on in prime time in a good portion of the country.Otherwise, the conferences have TV packages with networks, and the PAC 10 is on ABC/ESPN/ESPN2/FSN West &amp; Versus. Regionally, you&#x27;re just not going to see more of Luck on the East Coast.And he just threw 4 TD&#x27;s in a prime time bowl game.

wil168 · Answer

Give the kid a break.. to most uneducated athletes money are more important than education. the Luck chooses to finish his education over being drafted into the NFL in his Junior year.
Personally I would take the money.. but that's only because i hate school. Even if Luck don't make it in the NFL the chances of him making millions other than sports are greater than comparing to other known Athletes. Just think of this what would Michael Vick do if he didn't play sports? Most likely a bookie in a dog fight or some sort..

The point is this kid has great potentials because he sees the important value in education and football at the same time. This is something we don't see in other young athletes today.
