Andrew Luck Returning to Stanford
-
good for luck. it is well known that all men named andrew are geniuses and this just proves it.
this will completely change the draft. i could see carolina drafting whatever player is the best overall now. maybe aj green just to see if clausen can do anything with some weapons.
once a fan, always a fan. married to a steeler fan. aaaaaaaaah! --andy -
Good for him. Not everyday you get a chance to study at a school like stanford.
Doesn't really effect the browns though, we have our QB.

It effects the draft board, which in turn effects the Browns.
Maybe u need to go to Stanford

I'm in the quick minority here.
This kid can return to Stanford ANY time he wants for the rest of his life and finish the year on his degree to go design structures.
But what he CAN'T do is guarantee he will be the first pick in the draft in 2012.
It's not something he should risk IMO. I know it still worked out for guys like Bradford, but why place yourself at risk? There is one thing he can't do, and that is IMPROVE his draft position.
I commend him on honoring a contract and all, but if it were me or my son, I'd suggest otherwise.
CHANGE IS GOOD -
I am usually all for these guys staying in school but this kid just made a horrible decision. He was in a great draft class to go #1 overall. Its not like he couldnt get his degree later on down the road. He seems like a good kid and I hope he has another chance to go #1 overall next year but thats highly unlikely.

100% Agree! He is taking a HUGE risk.. how could you pass up guaranteed mulit-millions of dollars to finish out one year?! Especially when he can go back to stanford ANYTIME. I can guarantee any one of us would take the money.. how could you not?! After all, isn't that what we are after?? He has a talent that can make him MILLIONS.. AHH what is he thinking!!??
Anyways.. whatever.. eff him

based on having to watch the panthers this year every week, they have needs in literally every position except running back. A.J. Green is good, but not number one overall good. I'm just spitballing, but I see them taking Da'Quan Bowers now or Nick Fairley if he has a strong showing in the title game
I bet Jimmy Clausen is pretty happy right now though haha. He might just get to be shitty for the panthers for another season after all.

I totally agree. Leinart, Locker, etc.

Peyton Manning was projected #1 in 1997 to complete his degree. He then went #1 in 1998. Just hope Luck doesn't get injured. Seems like a guy with class.

And boy is he using that degree to it's fullest!

Everytime I see a sure fire 1st rounder stay in school I think of Michael Bush of Louisville staying for his sr. year and blowing his knee out. I hope he stays healthy. He throws like a pro QB right now. He throws long and touch passes like a nfl vet! My bet he doesn't like his options where he would end up playing if he went pro.

wow, i just checked out a couple of panther forums, and they all pretty much say the same thing: first they are crying about not getting him and starting with the "why us? why us?" sympathy bull[Mark May]. then most of them go onto say "[censored] him and whatever he does. i hope he gets hurt and never plays." what a bunch of assholes. they are getting mad at a 21 year old kid that was never theirs to begin with for going back to school. grow up panther fans.
-
WOW.. Im shocked..
It may cost him money upfront, but the kid has to do what he feels in his heart. Good for him!
Let me tell you just because you get the money up front doesnt mean your life is set..
ALA Ryan Leaf
When I saw the interview with him at the orange ball game, the dude looks young. He is a humble..
besides if we hire Marty Morniwigg this guy will be our next year
-
good for him. lol @ the mouth breathers on an online message board criticizing someone for putting their education first.

QB at Carolina: 65 mil/ 10 years....then who knows
Architectural design degree out of Stanford + 65mil/10 years from NFL team = running architectural design firm at age 30 through 65 = 175-300 mil over lifetime.
300,000,000 > 65,000,000 is what he's thinking. Smart guy.
-
Good for him to return. Shows pretty good character. Im just wondering if he didnt like the situation he would have had in Carolina.
-
Everyone on here is acting like its a done deal that he will be a great NFL QB. Lots of bust first round picks as QB. I think he is making the right decision.
