Quote:What he's referring to is the fact Teddy backed out of a commitment to Miami.  Miami may not be playing well, but they are a historically much higher caliber program than Louisville, and I would expect Louisville to have a rude awakening in the ACC.

 

We'll never know what he would have done in the ACC because he left early (which, of the two commitments he's backed out of I understand most.)

 

But if I were him, I'd skip the combine, just like AJ.  That way all they see of me, is what I present.  He's going to want to steer them towards what they already like, and steer them away from getting a better idea of his size.

Just because he decommitted on big programs and decided to enroll at a smaller school has nothing to do with his skillset.  Just so you know, his playing at a smaller school means that he is working with lower quality of talents around him.  In fact, there isn't another prospect on that Louisville team that actually receives a mid-round grade.  Why do you think DeVante Parker decided to stay for another year even after his QB and coach decided to leave?  And for the record, his Louisville team would easily beat any of those big schools he decommitted.  Maybe they should have done a better job recruiting him?

 

 

McCarron decided to skip the Senior Bowl so that he can get ready for the combine, not the otehr way around.  And to even suggest that Bridgewater should skip the NFL combine -- huh? -- so that he can protect his draft status for fear that NFL executives could see him in his undies is by far the dumbest post I've read on this board.  And this one is coming from a moderator.....I don't know what to say.
