Simmons

I have been monitoring Simmons accounts like a hawk .... wishful thinking?!?
Is the deadline midnight? My son was staying up with me to find out but he fell asleep.
I feel like I did when I pulled over on the side of the road and listened to ETN share that he was coming to Clemson.

a "formal" announcement to the fans is certainly not required

My understanding from multiple posters and online is that the process requires declaration on 1/17, then an opportunity for buyers remorse within 3-days, but not visa-versa.
Is this incorrect?
As an aside, FHA home loans provide the buyer of the home opportunity to back out within 3-days of closing for the same reason.

that is my understanding from reading the rule

for players with eligibility remaining.
Simmons surely has already turned in his paperwork. With his degree, he has absolutely no reason to return with top 5 or top 10 money on the line. No doubt he loves his team and Clemson family, but too much of a gamble to come back.

Agreed. Just thought there’d be some definitive reporting.

but #11 is projected higher than any other underclassman that has come back, including the Power Rangers.

I read several times he was supposed to make an announcement

To our fans tonight at 11:00. It could just be a rumor I guess.

True!! I was just thinking that since he re-tweeted the announcements from the other guys ... he would have penned a letter to the Clemson family. I guess if he did already declare this week maybe he was giving them the limelight.
But then again I heard that rumor about 11 & I gained some hope after hearing the ETN announcement.

Simmons will likely be a top 10 possibly top 5 pick. I think he has to go, not that I want him to but a few Million is hard to pass up. He’s still upset Mike Williams and Deshaun didn’t pass out hundreds of $$$

Yeah the only thing he could by coming back is hurting his draft stock. No reason to stay, he's excelled at everything asked of him to do. Dabo has said many times if you have your degree then you dont owe him anything, also said if your a consensus 1st rounder then you should go. Im pretty sure i read an article earlier this year that said he already informed the coaches before the season that he would be leaving. I would think they have already gave his scholarship to someone else for 2020. Not sure how that would work if he were to come back.

Simmons had perhaps the best game of his career Saturday against the Orange, recording a game-high 11 tackles, 3.5 tackles for loss and a career-high two sacks. He continues to raise his draft stock after telling Clemson coach Dabo Swinney before the season that this will be his last year. And Simmons will likely be a first-round pick in the 2020 draft, with the potential to climb into the top 10.

Yep, good advice. Maybe go bowling. I thought someone knew that he was announcing something @11 last night. I do agree he’s gone. Just thinking if it was a done deal he would put out something earlier in the week. So that gave a sliver of hope.

Simmons does not have to formally declare for the draft. He already announced before the season that he was not coming back, as others have posted.
