The reason being that if an injury happens in college he is the guy who bypassed the quick route because of his love of college and school. Not only is their insurance for injury but also a new family that will look out for him. Injured in the minors and things are tougher.
Look I’m old,54 but I hope I never forget what it’s like to be 18. If he was my son, yes I have a 17 year old, I say trust you, believe in you and do what makes you happy because I know you won’t fail!!
I wonder what Kirk (cousin of Elvis) is up to these days? I remember Jackie saying "If he gets offered 1M, I'm telling him to take it". Always wondered what type of QB he would have been.
