There's no I in team? Or maybe there is?? I get confused. Actually I think I shouldn't criticize his decision. He had a "core muscle injury" whatever that is and wasn't expected back till November, earliest. And let's face it, he has millions on the line. Can't really blame him too much with football being business more than sport these days.

Well I can't say I blame him

He was arguably the frontrunner to be taken #1 overall in the draft before he got injured. It seemed pretty unlikely he would play again this year so he might as well just move on and focus on rehab and draft prep. That's more important for his future right now than a few months of college classes. He can always go back and finish his degree after hes made millions in the NFL.

I think you will also see a lot more of the better players start skipping the bowl games now, $$$$.

Not just a bowl game, probably the Playoff.

That's the difference in Clemson and Ohio State

Our D-Linemen spurn the NFL to come back and play at Clemson for the Team. Their D-Linemen can't wait to get out of Columbus.

and move, mostly to the SC coast.
Not sure why Citadel and Coastal don't recruit the state of Ohio exclusively. Ever offer would be taken.

Our D lineman didn’t have a major injury and it wasn’t week 2 of their season. A little different. Definitely impressive that Dabo got those guys to stay

Rumor is, that since he was injured, Oscar asked him to

leave, so there'd be more room under the salary cap.

I think its a bad plan. NFL teams are going to want to

see what he was able to do post injury. If he's healed by November, he could've helped maintain his draft position by playing in a even just 1 game.. like a bowl.

I'm pretty sure his advice is spot on about what NFL teams want

Sadly this is the new norm. He will still be a top draft pick.
Everybody thought the clown would be the first to do this, but it took a while longer.
You will see this from most top prospects on Power 5 teams that are out of the CFP. I'm just surprised he did it with tOSU being in contention for the playoffs.
McCaffrey was the first, I believe, but the trend will only continue. Loyalty is a thing of the past. We have seen it disappear in the corporate world and now it's trickling down to the youth.

There's a pretty significant difference here.

Nick Bosa is injured and coming off surgery, Clowney was just lazy and didn't want to do any work outside of games.
