Smart decision. Makes no sense for him to stay around for a new position coach.

Sucks losing a guy with his talent but if it was going to happen, glad it was a linebacker. I'm assuming this means Gerri moves over.

I'm probably in the minority, but I understand his decision. It's not like another year at MSU is going to turn him into a great NFL prospect.

Good luck to the guy. Hope he makes millions.

I disagree. 9 times out of 10, I'd tell the kid to go. But not in this case. He's been told he may go undrafted. At this point, he could only IMPROVE his draft position.

The new CBA really has made the golden senior year irrelevant in college. It used to be that if you weren't a 1st or 2nd round pick, you came back. Now you just have to be projected to be picked. Only the first 10 picks really make life changing money compared to any other rookie.

Seems like LSU has lost a ton of juniors to the draft who weren't projected to be picked either.

Looking at the

current crop of defenders in the NFL from State over the last few years, you'd be crazy to not want to come here, if given an offer. Cox, Boyd, Wright, Banks, Slay, Autry, McKinney, Smith, McPhee...**** that would be one of the best defenses in the NFL.

You mean the guy who made his first start in State's last game? At linebacker. At a position where you have 1 returning starter.

Arguably our deepest spot though (with WR).

I think Green stays at LB. We heard some of this same stuff about McKinney rushing off the edge too, and then I don't think we ever saw it in a game.

You know what's awesome about that list? Basically, none of the guys were really "heavily recruited" with the exception of Cox, and Boyd was a 4star, but was pretty much a dawg from the beginning if I'm remembering correctly. Just think, we got Denico and Mcphee from Juco, and Banks from extreme rural MS....none of these guys really seemed to be much compared to the other names out of high school. It's awesome to see what they became and see them today.
