This has been beaten to death, but there was never a chance of him coming back for his senior year, push or no push. Our coaching staff isn't in the business of advising players based on personal gain as opposed to the gain of the player. His ceiling was never higher than after his junior year and he made the right decision to enter the draft (followed by a couple of wrong decisions since then). He wasn't getting faster, stronger, or more elusive by coming back for a 5th year. All he would have gotten is more miles on the odometer and possibly a career threatening injury (all while not getting paid for it). Draft stock wouldn't have improved one iota.
