Parker Washington should have returned this year.

I mean pretty sure that no one wants to lose millions. Could be wrong.

Who says he lost millions?
You keep pretending that's even remotely a reality. It's not.

Yep. In all likelihood, Parker was duped out of millions by whomever talked him into leaving early with less production than the previous year and still not able to test after injury. 90% or better probability that this decision cost him at least 2 or 3 rounds. But he seems to have listened to someone selling him sunshine and lollipops.

The big thing was his health though. I can understand declaring in November thinking he’d be healthy enough for the combine but by not being able to participate - and having lingering injury concerns - on top of decreased production this past year hurt his stock.

So I just go back to asking, is it possible to “un declare” if it becomes evident one is not going to be able to participate in the combine or work outs?

Is there a date by which they must declare? If not, in an injury situation, maybe it is best to wait and know your extent of recovery. Plus, I'm not sure even participating in the combine would have been enough for Parker this year. He needed a 1000+ yard season and more than his 2 TDs on a potential playoff contender to show GMs that his production was enough to overlook some of his less than desirable measurables.

But I do agree with you, perhaps a date by which to reverse a bad decision might be worth looking at for these kids. My concern would be the unforeseen consequences of perhaps a ton of kids declaring and then pulling it back as there was no harm in doing so.

Returning to PSU with a QB who can actually throw deep? Id say its a pretty safe bet.

You are clueless. You think Allar is coming in and lighting it up right away? Probably 3 or 4 throwaway games just to get him into the offense. He could stay for another year, add zero productivity but be one year older which isn't a good thing.

I said who actually can throw deep. Did I say light it up? Dont put words in my mouth.

Or complain about bringing back a very good college who was in line to be our #1 WR?

I was basically mocking the original post. I like the guy.
