Marcus Mariota returning

[SteelersPride]

wonder if super unready hundley comes out now

I have no doubt that Oregon is paying their players. That is nuts.

You should see the players parking lot.... If the Ducks are paying the players the kids arent spending the money on vehicles.

Why on earth would a QB turn down top 10 money and an interior olineman turn down 2nd round money? Thats as good as it gets.

Good question. I know Mariota's family owns old land in Hawai'i.

The Oregon fan in me and the general CFB fan in me says they want more in their CFB experience. But in todays day and age I wouldnt knock anyone for questioning it.

The kid is painfully shy to the point of it being a fault.

I honestly think the thought of the NFL scares the shit out of him right now.

He really is a good kid.

Its a hard sell to convince me that someone is going to hand over their lottery ticket and risk getting injured to try and get that same lottery ticket back next year. Luck did it but a Stanford degree does have its prestige.

I think Im really just frustrated as an NFL fan. The league needs more QBs and he could come into the league and be at least as good as Kaepernick. He is either getting some really bad advice, is getting paid or there is some part of his game that he is really insecure about and for some reason he thinks he is better off in Oregon's system to improve this part of his game. Or he is a millennial who doesn't want to grow up...in which case, maybe its hard not to blame him but he was almost a lock to be a top 10 pick.

kaps been bad this year, his 160 yards a game

He has 7.6 yards per attempt, 5.4 yards per rush and is over 2 to 1 on TD to INT. His demise has been greatly exaggerated

or getting his pre-med degree is actually important to him

Idiocy/jealousy is unbecoming

 

[TexasMan]

Good decision by him.

Say what you will but his draft stock will never be higher. He is taking a massive risk as is your interior lineman projected to go in round 2.

People said the same thing when Luck returned...that turned out ok.

Dennis Dixon ring a bell?...Where is he now? On a pine board no doubt.

Playing some arena thing in Portland I believe.

Leaving early didn't really work out for him

For every Luck there is a Matt Barkley

(or maybe there isnt. Staying in when you're a consensus top 10 pick cant be too common)

Nor did his knee injury suffered late in a season with the DUCKS headed towards a natty.
