I was wondering with all the things going on with the University, has anyone heard anything about players leaving for the NFL or transferring. I know I read somewhere about DJ and KB leaving for the NFL but I havent heard it from a reliable source, so im guessing its not true, but I want to see what you guys have heard.
 
I honestly doubt it. Both need a good season next year to boost the draft numbers. I don't think they would go very high this year if at all. Just my opinion.
 
I have heard about KB and DJ leaving early. There was a thread about that on TideSports and somebody said they saw it on al.com. I couldn't find a link to it though.

RTR forever!
 
Not true. DJ wants to stay because he needs higher stock in the draft. People would not take him over Calvin Johnson, Smarr from ND, Dwayne Jarrett, Meachem, Dallas Baker, and others. Next year he could be a top reciever in the draft.
KB has been hurt this year and that will bring his stock way down. Also, his numbers were not good and he had a drop. Let's quit thinking people will leave because we will get a better coach and they will want to play for him.

We are committed to a good "name" hire this time. I don't think any players will leave if the right hire is made...

With the names I'm seeing thrown around anyone we get will be a "good name". I'm just concerned about how long until the new coach is actually hired. I'd hate for this thing to get drawn out into a soap opera search.

Any thoughts on who that hire will be? Or are things still pretty much speculative still at this point?
 
If the new head coach goes out and brings in a competent line coach and makes the players understand a weight room is not for loafing and collecting dust, I think DJ and KB would be stupid to leave. After all, it is a know fact Shula played favorites and one must question did we have the best 5 O-lineman on the field? I think we will see a much improved O-Line next year and with the talent we have in JPW, JJ, KB, DJ, & possibly Pro, the offense will be able to average 27 points per game in SEC play..... That would have left us at 10-2 this year....... (Really 11-1 as the UF game got away late.... b/c we were forcing things.)
 
I went to high school with DJ and my mom knows his parents very well, i think he will stay all though he has all the reasons in the world to go. He is one of those who does need the money. I think with his numbers this year plus a good combine he could go pretty high. Samar.... form Notre Dame may play baseball instead, meechem and jarrett are also jr's so it is not certain that they leave early. However, i still think that he will stay from what i have heard

He needs another solid year in college. He goes now and he's running the risk of being VERY VERY disapointed.....from a money standpoint.
