I'd really like to see if anyone will take a shot at Ramonce Taylor, and if someone does, they really need to get their head checked.

I think so too, he wasn't a bad runningback but we saw what a year away from play can do (i.e. Clarett and Mike Williams).

Half of these guys I have never heard of which is not good for their draft stock. I think it'd be better for most of them to stat in school another year just to pad to their resume. Mots of these guys will play five years in the NFL and then get out in the real world with no major education. I think Marshawn Lynch, Robert Meachem, and JaMarcus Russell are the only one's who should realistically be leaving early.

Rice needs to stay one more year in college, then he should go to the draft.

Not official, but Calvin Johnson has two feet out the door and plane tickets to New York. I wouldn't be so sure... Tech's new quarterback is a roomate with Johnson and said we was going to try and presuade Calvin to stay, and Johnson's parents are both professors that want him to finish college. In the end I'm guesing he'll still leave, but its not a fact yet.

Anyone who can go three years in his situation without snapping someones head off has a lot more character and willlpower than I ever will. Thanks for being the best player in GT history.

Ko Simpson left from SC after his redshirt sophomore year last season.
I think Jonathan Joseph (Bengals 1st round pick) was also an early-out last season, as well. Now Rice.
Not likely, but could the 'Ol Ball Coach have something to do with this?

I dont think so.... just impaciant players thinking their ready for the NFL. They both could have used a Senior year and Rice probably could have as well.
