If your son was in his position, everyone here knows you'd want him doing the same thing. And don't give me this "requirements" nonsense. He's got one chance to get himself 100% before the draft so he's taking it.
He wants to take the rest of the season off to rehab that’s fine, but isn’t he a captain? Shouldn’t he at least be there for his team instead of saying “fuck you guys, I’m out” and walking away throwing up the middle fingers at everyone around?

That's a pretty dramatic account of what actually happened. From all accounts this has killed him, but he's doing the best thing for his career and his teammates have all come out supporting him, as have a ton of prominent alumni.

Personally even if he couldn't play he should have stayed in Columbus and done his rehab with the team and been a team leader that the defense needs at the moment.

fucking had it with this shit.

I find it amazing how some schools are often able to keep their star players....... wonder why that is...... :scratch:
They do a very good job of making them think they aren’t very good and they have a lot of improvements to be had.

That's because at some schools their degrees actually mean something....like at Michigan State

Pretty classless move if ya ask me. Whats next, not playing your junior year completely? College football has becoma nothing more than a farm team for the Nfl.

One & done status for CFB players? You're :crazy:. The NFL isn't the NBA. There isn't a single college player that's ready for the NFL one year removed from HS.

And if you have such an issue w/ what Bosa did where's your outrage that McCaffery sat outta Stanford's bowl game 2 years ago to prepare for the draft?

I don't like the idea of stuff like this happening but there will be more players that follow what Bosa just did.

“It’s very emotional and tough, and I know the coaches had hoped for a different outcome, but they totally understood and I’ll always be forever indebted to those guys for what they did for my sons,” said John, whose son Joey – Nick’s older brother – also played for the Buckeyes from 2013-15. “I’ve trusted both of my sons to that group of coaches, and I can’t thank them enough

The reason why it had to come to an end, John said, was that Nick had to undergo a bilateral repair of his groin muscle – a surgery that requires a 10- to 12-week recovery before Nick would have been able to return to the field

With the time needed for his recovery, Bosa would have only been able to return for Ohio State’s bowl game or College Football Playoff game(s), and he and his family ultimately determined that it was not worth it to try to come back to potentially play in just one more collegiate game, having already made the decision to declare for the 2019 NFL draft even before his injury.

“The timeframe, we started to look at it, and it just wasn’t going to make sense for him to even try and come back,” John said. “And it would be in a situation where it was a bowl game or a playoff game, and that’s just not, it’s just not something that you’re going to risk having to try and come back for that date. So when you stripped away the emotion, then we understood and I knew as a dad what’s best for my son. And he came to the same conclusion on his own. And then we as a family discussed it, Joey and the doctors and his mom, and we all knew.”


Nick Bosa's Father On His Son's Decision: “It Was Hard For Him To Actually Accept That It Was Over”

---

The Bosa's were good to Ohio State and I have nothing but respect for that family. Screw the idiots who don't understand the situation. After seeing what happened to Jaylen Smith, I don't blame a projected top 10 pick protecting his money. It's not like he's sitting out games healthy.

Did you really take me seriously as to the one and done comment?....wow. Might wanna look up sarcasm in the big book.
As far as Mccaffery, it was his LAST game, not half the year. They don't compare. Try n keep up.

Bosa's injured right now & can't even play. It's not like he took himself outta action. Try & keep up. And your one & done comment. I had to say something because the idea itself is completely absurd.

Well, if the NFL ever changes their rules it would. The thing preventing that is that you aren't eligible for the NFL until your Junior year. Worst case scenario is what Bosa has done here. No one is going to sit out their junior season to qualify for the draft, it would likely knock you out completely or certainly knock you down a few rounds.
