    Garvin to the NFL

    I thought it would be interesting to take a closer look at this. This is is something I definitely agree with, because it sounds like it should be true, but wasn't sure if it actually was. I think it's a very slippery slope to do this because: Is a RS-Senior more prepared than a Senior? Is a...

    Garvin to the NFL

    While I agree with that in theory, I don't know if there's any proof to that, and I don't know how much that really moves the needle. I think "maturity" in players is a very individual basis, and can be a slippery slope when trying to do a comparison. But we've definitely had players go early...

    Garvin to the NFL

    Man...Thomas will go down as one of the more frustrating Canes I can remember. Hard to believe we couldn't get more production out of his talent.

    Garvin to the NFL

    I definitely agree with you he played better his Sophomore year, put up better stats, and was just a better player. I also agree coming back his Senior year would benefit him, and he needs to prove he can give more consistent effort. IMO - the formula of "Return for Senior Season + Have a Big...

    Garvin to the NFL

    I think he was much better as a Sophomore, when he had 5.5 sacks, than his Junior Year, when he had 5.0 sacks. That's why I don't think a huge leap is a given. Competition can sometimes work against you. Trevon Hill had 3.5 sacks in 3 games his Junior Year. I'm sure he didn't see making 1...

    Garvin to the NFL

    I agree with you, and I think Garvin should've come back. I just don't think it's near as bad a decision as people are making it out to be. People are acting like he'll be an UFA this year when he could be a 2nd next year. I think more realistically instead of a 6th - 7th this year, he...

    Garvin to the NFL

    I agree with the points that Seniors are better prepared, and 1-3rd Rounders get way more leeway than 5-7th Rounders. But if Garvin is a 5th Rounder this year, or came back and was a 5th Rounder next year - what's the difference? Garvin's draft stock staying similar his Senior year is probably...

    Garvin to the NFL

    This is how I feel about most returning players - most will end up being about the same as Seniors as they were as Juniors. Take our Top returning players in terms of NFL potential this year vs. last year: DeeJay Dallas - Was better this year, but had injury problems. Garvin, Shaq, Pinckney -...
