January 14, 200719 yr The only reason you want him gone is because it improves UKs chances of beating Louisville. Like Ram54 said, using your logic Burton and probably Little should have gone as well. Since im a UK football fan you got me there :lol: But if you want my opinion he will have his hands full against Woodson.
January 14, 200719 yr You never know what next year holds. Thats why he is stupid to come back. Leinart came back and V Young stole the spotlight. College bball.. Noah comes back, now everyone is talking about Oden, Durrant, and others. When you have a great year, you ride that sucess to the $$$ The only reason you guys want him to come back is because UL will probably struggle without him, when you both know he is ready for the draft. Why risk a slumping season or blowing out his knee again. Look at Bush.. a lot of hype lasted what 3 quarters? With football you never know.. safe bet is to take the guaranteed money waiting for him. Brohm stupid? (nope) Comparing basketball and football? (doesn't work too well) Does Brohm NEED to ride that success to the $$$? (again, nope. Unless money is truly everything, but I have my doubts) UofL will struggle without him? (Again, and again, nope. I love how fast people write Catnwell off, and then he turns around and wins games) Come on now.
January 14, 200719 yr The NFL experts didn't agree with you. Bush was projected 2nd or 3rd round last year. A fact that was confirmed by his NFL evaluation. Could be why he stayed. Looked like a good plan on paper, but things happen. He will get a shot at the NFL. I saw some project him late first. I just don't follow the logic of him being a better prospect now.
January 14, 200719 yr Since im a UK football fan you got me there :lol: But if you want my opinion he will have his hands full against Woodson. If Brian stays, will he be playing defense next year?:confused: Or is Andre switching to D?
January 14, 200719 yr If Brian stays, will he be playing defense next year?:confused: Or is Andre switching to D? Just saying Andre doesn't back off with the stats. He is not the paper champ but he gets it done.
January 14, 200719 yr Hello Peyton Manning. We can play that game all day. Is Leinart really a good comparison since he was projected to be a sure fire top 5 pick, and #1 QB taken? Brohm is projected as the #3 QB, mid to late 1st round. I think Brohm will be the first QB picked if he comes out, but he might be better in the long run to be a mid to late 1st round pick. That being said, I think that he will stay since his brother is still there.
January 14, 200719 yr When it comes to UL info, 02Ram is almost always dead-on. I'll look for Brohm to return.
January 14, 200719 yr I would love to see him come back but I think it might hurt him. Losing Petrinois the biggest loss. Learning a new offense will take time and growing pains. Bush being gone is tough but he was used to that this year. He would leave the biggest hero in Cardinal football history with his last apperance on the stage as the MVP of the Orange Bowl. I'll be honest I haven't looked at all the QB's coming out after this year. Russell and Quinn will go ahead of him this year but he shouldn't be far down the list after that. Unless he feels like he can be the number 1 pick? Something that I think people forget when it comes to $$ is that he can get an insurance policy. It's not the same $$ but it's not bad either!
January 14, 200719 yr Let's look at the flip side in this....let's say he does slide some in next year's draft...what does that really mean? That he got drafted by a team that is marginally better than the worst teams in the league. Sure it may hurt the pocket book initially, but he is in it for the long haul, and will look at his career decisions that way also. I am still thinking that he will be declaring, but wouldn't it be cool, if he stays hum about the decision, as if he were never gonna say anything, and that he was always coming back
January 14, 200719 yr Should take some advice from tOSU WR Anthony Gonzales (a player not nearly the caliber of Brohm) "The scouts said im a 2nd round draft pick, that is good enough for me. If I come back next year, there is a chance I may get injured and never get to play this game again." Brohm an almost guaranteed first round draft pick. Has a lot more to lose then gain by coming back to school. If he goes in 07 he's a first round draft pick, if he goes in 08.. he's a first round draft pick.. that is if he doesn't have any serious injuries. Then he could be anywhere from 2-4th round or maybe have a serious career injury. He very well could come back and do great. But again, he is a first round draft pick??? I am not UL fan by any means but he has paved his own way to success. This kid is set for life probably but just signing his name on a contract in a few months. Its a big risk. To be fair, I will say the same thing about my man Teddy Ginn.. his stock is super high and he should go pro. That is if his newly acquired ankle injury doesn't keep him out of NFL workouts. Perfect example of a bad break right there.
January 14, 200719 yr Hello Matt Leinart You know, I always hear this, but Matt Leinart came back, got his degree, was God in L.A., dated Paris Hilton, put up gaudy numbers, only lost the national title because Vince Young pulled something out of his rear end, was drafted tenth instead of first because of "arm strength," did lose a considerable amount of money but still is making mega-millions, got a whole bunch of endorsements out West, won the starting job mid-season, and after losing a couple ended up having a pretty decent rookie year on a horrid team. Throw me in that briar patch.

Throw me in that briar patch. I agree. Who knows if Leinart's stock may have dropped after the combine anyway. I think Brian goes, but it wouldn't be "stupid" to stay as some others have said.
January 14, 200719 yr Author I agree. Who knows if Leinart's stock may have dropped after the combine anyway. I think Brian goes, but it wouldn't be "stupid" to stay as some others have said.There's a big difference between 18th pick and 3rd pick.
January 14, 200719 yr There's a big difference between 18th pick and 3rd pick. please explain your point.:confused:
