Per 247 in regards LBs leaving early for the NFL Draft.

Staff has been told McCloud will be returning for his senior year.

Staff believes Quarterman is returning next year because there is a belief Quarterman will not be a high draft pick

Staff is hopeful Pinckney will decide to join them. Pinckney, like Quarterman, could also be overlooked as a draft prospect given his size.

Good question op everyone's question will be answered by the deadline to enter the draft.great if they stay but I think we will be ok if they go.important question is what is Diaz going to do .and what is the university going to do to try and keep him.
 
Shaq has been a hard worker, and had done so much to wear the U proudly. So he will not go down as the next Ray Lewis, the guy plays hard, has never been an issue on or off the field and balls to the best of his ability each and ever play. Not sure why he is not more of a fan favorite.

I'd be happy to have him back.

I've been waiting for this cat to explode and take over games. These last couple games, especially Pitt, Shaq has brought the violence I had not seen in him before. He should comeback and end his career off right....
 
Unless you're a kid with an extreme financial hardship, there is absolutely no reason to go to the league unless you know with nearly 100% accuracy you are a 1st rounder worthy of 1st round dollars.
 
It’s really hard for LBs to dominate in CFB given the offenses, but 55 and 56 are as good as we could hope for. Both are just below elite in my opinion which is White from LSU who has more speed.

While Norton and McIntosh (who made his season debut for Giants Sunday) are cautionary tales (so far), Willis is the better example.

He came back a year older, wiser and stronger, absolutely dominated and should likely be a 2nd rounder at worst. DTs who rush the passer are arguably more important than edge rushers now. We will see where that lands Willis in the draft but I’d be hard pressed to find any player during the Shannon, Golden and Richt era who wouldn’t have served themselves better and then the team better by coming back for their senior year, except for Duke and Lamar Miller.

Our LB's have been the weakest part of our defense. Just watch film of them in action. They're consistently plugging the wrong gaps, chasing and making tackles 10 yards downfield, can't cover RB's and TE's coming off the backfield/line NFL scouting reports of all 3 say pretty much the same thing. Don't know who coaches them but he should give his pay money back. All 3 of them should go after 6th round if they come out early.
