How many more Stanford opt-outs? - donkey687 - 09-17-2020
Little is out.
Adeebo and Mills are the best NFL prospects and could be at risk for opting out but they both could also benefit the most by having good film over the likely upcoming stub season.
Who else may opt out for health or other reasons? Hinton (his parents were vocal about risks of season)?

The only opt-out for NFL purposes I could see happening is Adebo, though he returned for a reason...if there's any sort of season he will want to put some film out there showing that double moves won't roast him anymore.
This is now Mills' team, and he hasn't even started a full season at the helm yet. Not enough there for the NFL at this point, though they are certainly interested in how he looks this year.
FWIW, Hinton's parents are very happy with the measures Stanford has taken to ensure the safety of their kids. (Michigan with elder son Chris too, for that matter. Michigan's football team had zero positive Covid tests in August.) They are very unhappy with the lack of measures taken by plenty of other schools.
The common sentiment I'm seeing all over our players' Twitters and Instagrams is that they all want to play. Unless there's some underlying condition (Mike Williams @ SMU for example previously had heart complications), I have no clue if anyone sits out for Covid reasons. The guys are back on campus practicing now.

Agree with Samuel Mills hasn’t played enough to have NFL value. He needs to prove he can get through a season. If he does so and plays at the level that he’s capable, he could work his way into being a relatively high pick.

Guys, it isn’t film. Not even tape. It is digital content recorded on wafers.

Film is dead. Long live film.

Not dead yet. Still some Hollywood productions.

My 13 year old is interested in refurbishing and playing with some of my older film cameras. Several 70+ year old Leicas, a stereoscopic, even a 100+ year old one with bellows. Wants me to buy some film for them. . . .

I still have some 16 neg and a few old reversal rolls. There is still a bit of 35 out there and it can be rolled in a darkroom. Don't know about still roll and processing.

I'm surprised Adebo hasn't announced already, but now with the possibility/likelihood of a limited fall season rather than a spring season, I doubt anyone else is going to leave.

The bigger question is how many opt outs will opt back in.
