I know players have gone back after declaring, and I know the NCAA restriction was based on them hiring an agent.

Name some b/c I was/am completely unaware of any player declaring for the NFL draft and then playing college foot

I'd consider him a sleeper. ... I think he's a favorite ...

Um, so which is it?

I don't ever want to put the NCAA in a situation where they have to trust agents to keep their word.

TIMMY ... you do realize that only 1 person open is NOT the same as only one person running a route for a pass right?

I'd consider him a sleeper. ... I think he's a favorite ...

If you have hired an agent you are either paying him BIG money or he's doing work for compensation in the future which means you are getting real value for his services, or in other words, you are getting paid.  I understand the agent restriction.

  I think they should be able to go back any time they are not drafted and have no agent, but I don't think that's the case now.

The league is trying to reduce the number of underclassmen declaring for the draft. The new rookie wage scale was supposed to do that too--but it instead, record numbers of underclassmen have declared in almost every year since.

EDIT--Looks like I was thinking of the Super Bowl where Manning's Colts were complaining about the Pats DBs

cervant ... some of that is true now ... IIRC a player can declare for the draft and maintain their eligibility as long as they don't get an agent.  What I don't know is if they can maintain that eligibility all the way through the draft ... I don't think so.

Better to let a prospect know that the

I found the Kawakami "never" article ... he didn't say "never" the headline writer did.  What Kawakami was talking about in what I found was the York's statement that they would have the stadium open in 2012.

I feel like the NFL watched and waited for the NFL to respond, the NFL ignored it for a few years so the rest of the NFL said "Well, I guess that's the way it is now"

Officiating.

Why didn't they do it when it was obviously an issue 2 years ago?

- There were several clips shown of defenders grabbing jerseys of receivers while running down the field before the ball was in the air. Teams are being reminded of defensive holding, with plans to more closely enforce that foul.

It should have started there.

Talk about opening up yourself for lawsuits. I wanna get evaluated, but I play for Big State U and they already have 5 guys, so I get an attorney and sue (NFL? NCAA? BSU?)

The Warriors are talking about moving to SF and the oakland fans are fine with that, but I've heard several say they will not continue to support the team if they change their name from Golden State to San Francisco.  I don't much care for San Francisco as a place to spend time, and I don&

All we heard for years was that the Santa Clara cite was "not feasible" for a number of reasons, that the naval shipyard in SF was the only place to put it (LOL), that ownership was incapable of getting one built, ownership simply couldn't afford to build one, that the cities wouldn't wor

J, the was a very tepid disagreement ... starting out explaining how you agree first   I think the naysayers were mostly about the specific projects being talked about in the bay area ... not the concept of a new stadium at some point down the road for the 49ers to play in.  IIRC there was ta

I think everyone knew the 49ers would get a new stadium ... at issue was where it would be.

cervant, It was players not wanting to be pressured to be at the facility during the offseason.  More and more teams were putting incentives in contracts to keep players around all year ... so the CBA very strictly limits coaches from talking to players.

Of course, I know that and have agreed with that all along.

The NFL will want huge money from any team wanting to move to LA ... the Raiders probably don't have the money.  Maybe Paul Allen can use his deep pockets to move the Seahawks to LA

Now the Commish is mentioning the possibility of the Raiders playing in Levi's Stadium...

TIM, Colin hasn't been allowed to work with the coaches for most of the offseason, he's not even allowed to communicate with them anymore.
