He paid, just not with cash. He paid for his time with CU with sweat equity. While doing so, he also helped CU win games and was the dominant force on your defense.
I think CU got the better deal with him.

Someone commented that he did not have to pay to go to school. All I said is that he actually paid a heavy price. All athletes do, and he did more so because he injured his knee.
Basically I said he was worth a whole lot more than the value of his scholarship to CU. If that point was not clear, I think you were trying to read something into the post because I am a Gamecock fan.

Please tell me you're a gamecock trolling the boards. It hurts me to think that someone claiming to represent the same institution as the rest of us could have such a horribly skewed view of this situation. Rather than filling a whole page with vitriol about this post I'm going to assume it was merely a bad attempt at being funny. Have a nice day and please try to refrain from making the rest of us look like a bunch of ingrates..
Thank you Bowers for the three years and we wish you all the best.

getting the big big bucks, but he will still make a lot more money than I ever will, and he got to play college ball at CU. So, I can't be too upset for him.
Some people are making it sound like his life is over because he didn't get picked first round. Not the case.

Jebus. When DQB's knee problem started going south, I prayed that he hadn't hired an agent. Obviously too late now but he had 2 conflicting precedents in front of him: CJ staying was monster and McDaniel staying may've cost him. Let's hope he signs the shortest contract possible and plays his way into being a multimillionaire.
Let's hope the Bills offense gets it in gear and shows how good CJ can be. Apologies for the digression.

I was shocked to see 8 DEs picked ahead of Bowers. Why?
Apr 29, 2011, 1:08 PM
|
|
Is it all because of his knee?
40-yard dash times too slow?
Did the lack of NFL production from previously drafted Clemson DEs have anything to do with it?

Obviously something bad wrong that the doctors know and we don't for him to slide the way he did. Hopefully he still gets picked up and does well. If not, come on back and finish the degree and go make the best of it. He'll always have the college stats and will hold a special place in the heart of many Tiger fans. Good luck tonight Quan.

NFL teams rely on doctors's evaluations, not rumors.

I'm sure that they've examined his MRIs.

What if he goes undrafted?
Apr 29, 2011, 6:51 PM

Is it possible he could come back to school for his final year of eligibility if he goes undrafted? Or does it mean he will need surgery which would require a lengthy rehab?
