      LA Duck or anybody else, that’s a lot of money.

      everyone shuts off their phone when they go golfing.  It’s one of the reasons real men love golfing, and why sitaloneSanka aka FakeLake can’t golf because of his degenerate gambling addiction.   sc

      Don’t know, but he would have been the first or second pick in the last draft. The scuttlebut is Oregon will pay him 7.5 million this year. He has taken quite a risk IMO, as the QB class for the upcoming draft is huge and there is a real possibility that he could drop to the back half of the first round. He has a great arm, is accurate, and is mobile but his frame is on the slender side and therefore more vulnerable to injury than more than a handful of the next QB class.

      Yep, he fore-went the money. 🙂

      Makes sense for a guy who was open (aka smart enough?) to sitting behind another player for a year (after starting at UCLA for much of his frosh season).  I also think the stats don’t lie – those college QBs that don’t start a certain # of games in college generally don’t do well in the NFL.  At least NFL teams next year will know they aren’t getting a knucklehead for a QB.

      That said, $55M is nothing to sneeze at.  Tough decision for sure.

      Mariota also came back despite the potential payoff, won the Heisman and made the national championship game.

      Herbert came back and won a Rose Bowl game.
