I saw him say that he feels he needs to get the degree in an interview when asked about leaving. He just threw away the possibility and was like, "No, I have to get a degree." Then I heard some rumor that his dad told tailgaters that Luck has to leave if he\'s a top 5 pick.

I think another incentive to stay has to be "college greatness". I mean, they would have a crack at the national title if he comes back. And, he\'ll have a real shot at the Voldemort too. I like to think he\'s coming back.

BTW for Luck there would be nothing stopping him from getting a degree later in life.  By 30 or so he would have a few hundred million dollars, and by 40 he will have ample free time.

Staying in school to get that degree is likely not the deal.  The deal would be that he could improve his chances of actually winning in the NFL with another year of Pac-10 experience.  He could also get hurt, so this degree and experience stuff must be considered against a meaningful risk of injury.
