Rousseau Opts out - F****

[HurricanesR1]

I'll be honest, I was expecting a sophomore slump from him (which usually happens to freshmen that break out in a big way).

He might've thought the same and decided to just avoid it by sitting out. Let's be honest, it's unlikely he would've had 15+ sacks again.

 

[Canemang]

And is going in the first

he’s a cane. Get over it

Wrong, he was a Cane, he quit

 

[PCBcanefan]

Sucks, but got to respect it. Next man up

 

[jackbenimble71]

It sucks but he's protecting himself

from what? just cost him millions.. bad decision

 

[hoops156]

Tough to justify the move. He really only has 1 year of experience playing DE, but next man up.

really? hes a top 15 pick on every board. all the first rounders are starting to opt out now given the situation and uncertainty. if he gets hurt, itll cost him more way more. protect the bag.

Rousseau could be making a small mistake here. He's going 1st round. But if he played he could probably lock up a top 5-10 draft slot. I don't think he's done that yet. Micah Parsons has though.

You don't see marvin wilson opting out, terry opting out, Lawrence, Etienne, etc. opting out. Same old **** boys. BOL to him but he's not going 1st round off one sophomore season tape.


Who wants to bet FRM signs him

If only COVID was preventable this wouldn't have happened.... It is what it is I guess. Next man up.

Half a season of tape.

Willis, 15 and Richards. Best talent we've had and all an apparition

 

[razrcane]

He will also not be a 1st round pick calling it now.

Depends on how he tests. The only knock on him right now is that he only played one year.

 

[Ziggy]

Best team and momentum we've had in forever and covid F's it all up. As much has it pains me to say this, Greg made the right long term decision and will be a top 5 pick next year. Congrats but this still sucks as a fan.

I haven’t seen a single mock that doesn’t have him as the first DE off the board in the next draft.

Jalen Phillips

Ball tf out

 

[calinative umstudent]

Also he may not even declare after this season. Could just return for next season ...

He's looking at his health which is priceless.He's making the best decision for himself.

 

[cooks002]

Who is going to command a double team now along the line? Weakens our pass rush significantly.

 

[crossover22[]_[]]

Love how yall are like next man up. He was our best player and we still have diaz as coach. This is as bad as it gets.

 

[Canesmia01]

Who takes the 4th spot on the 2 Deep?

Roche
Phillips
Harvey

Cam Williams?

 

[1992cane]

I doubt any of those Clemson guys opt out or even Fields.

I get this feeling as well

 

[ScubaCane]

I don't get this opt out crap, what is he afraid of getting sick? Really?
