I don't know whether this is a good or a bad decision for Mills.

But decisions like this, in which the professional and business interests of the players are increasingly prominent in the game, leave me cold.  I enjoyed college sports more when I could become attached to certain players.   Without that, the magic of the game is lost.

I too wish h'ed stayed, but that's just to provide entertainment and excitement for ME. He's been on the farm for four years, is 22, and ready to graduate. I am sure Shaw gave him good advice, both pros and cons. He effortlessly throws a beautiful, catchable ball and is mobile enuf if he doesn't get injured. He would have shown all that even more next year, but 90% of draft choices are based on potential. And, he has tremendous potential. Hopefully, he goes to a team that has a good scheme for him and won't get him killed like Plunkett. I think he goes in first 3 rounds. No big rookie K but plenty of coin down the road if he's as good as I think he is.

Re next year, Shaw will have to play McKee. And, he is going to be really good.

Concur. Size, mobility, rocket-launcher arm and speed. Maybe the best raw talent since Luck, Mills not withstanding.

More read  option perhaps.  Do we know anything about his accuracy?  True Dual Threat QB suggest some significant tweaks to the playbook. Let’s see if that happens.
