I kind of think this has changed recently, but for the longest time these "four-year scholarships" were actually renewable one-year scholarships. If that's still the case, there would be no breach of contract if a player chose not to renew his scholarship and instead left for the NFL. This happens the other way, from time to time.

Late add: Apparently this hasn't changed. Coaches can still revoke scholarships for performance reasons. Why should players, then, be criticized for leaving if they feel it's in their best interest?

I thought the Pac-12 had changed to 4-year scholarships, even if all of the NCAA didn't.
