Sorry if Germanic, but Dabo said this about Justin Ross...

From 247...
— Said there's no guarantee that Justyn Ross returns next season.
"We all hope he can play football again, but even if he can, that doesn't mean he's going to come back here."
What?? I've been counting on him as go-to for DJU in 2021. What's the backstory here?

agree, but sounds like Dabo is telegraphing that he might transfer. I don't like that and haven't heard any rumors. Thought it was strange Dabo would mention it.

That's what it sounded like to me when Dabo said it. Hope he misspoke. Surprised the reporters didn't jump on it.

That was my interpretation too. He might not play due to health. If healthy, he might play football but it might be in the NFL. He might not need another season in college to get drafted highly.

That's how I took it- possibly going to the NFL. Why would he transfer???

You are reading too much into it. He meant that he might go pro. It is very possible he gets a first round grade based on what we have seen of him to this point. If so, kind of hard to turn that down.

Not saying he won’t go but first round would

surprise me given the nature of his injury. I would think if he were not planning on Clemson next year he would have already opted out?

Maybe keeping his options open to come back, maybe leveraging the medical staff, etc

Good grief. Ross’s medical situation may not allow him to play football again base on how he recovers. Unlikely but there is a chance. He is three years removed from HS so he could declare for the draft.
Three options
1) never play again due to his medical issue 2) declare for the draft and play on Sundays 3) return and play for Clemson
