I used to have this argument with a friend of mine. I was always Pro Stay in School (even as a recent college drop-out)... - Mel Profit Jan 7, 06:42
It's risky, but I agree with David, it's not a stupid decision. Dude wants to graduate and wants to stay at Stanford another year. - Jim Jan 7, 06:04 8
- If he's 100% guaranteed the same money, that's the only way I'd agree with his decision. - nubby Jan 7, 06:16 7
  - I don't see a CBA getting done without a rookie salary cap. My whole argument hinges on that being a fact (instead of just my opinion). - Jim Jan 7, 06:27 3
    - Still, if he gets hurt or underperforms, he may drop like a rock. -- nm - nubby Jan 7, 06:44 2
      - See, with the cap, the risk is in injury more than dropping. - Jim Jan 7, 06:57 1
        
        If this is true and I have no reason to doubt it then it makes sense. - Mel Profit Jan 7, 07:17
  - it's not always about money. -- nm - decline Jan 7, 06:21 2
    - I would love to see him him just walk away from football and become an architect. -- nm - znufrii Jan 7, 06:25
    - And this kid comes from money - his point of view is decidedly different than most. -- nm - Diva Jan 7, 06:24
define "smart". -- nm - znufrii Jan 7, 06:03

- and Jim posted a good concise argument for staying as well. -- nm - TFox Jan 7, 06:04 1
  - I should bookmark this...I don't know that anyone has ever used those words in that order describing me before. :) -- nm - Jim Jan 7, 06:04
It's a huge risk. - Strongbad Jan 7, 06:01 2
- worst and most likely case harbaugh leaves; Luck has to learn a new offense and drops like Leinart -- nm - Beaker Jan 7, 06:27 1
  - Although Harbaugh has now turned down his alma mater AND the opportunity to be the highest paid coach in the league. - Jim Jan 7, 06:29
