For those of you claiming to have his best interests at heart, are you sure he's making a mistake? The team should be better next year, but that doesn't mean he will have a better season. In addition to his ability to fade into the background, there's the uncertainty about what the new staff will think of him. Maybe they'll decide that he shouldn't get as many touches as he did this year. He's only got one more year under Richt, I would argue staying is as much of a roll of the dice as going. And as for the "myth" of the combine, every year players get drafted higher than expected because they do well at the combine. If he can interview well and convince people he's not too injury prone, he'll do well in the draft.
The new staff will think the same we do....super talented. The team has NO depth at WR and he has all the potential in the world. The only way he wouldn't have a monster season is if he got hurt again. Otherwise, the cards seem to be stacked in his favor with a better offensive minded coach, a kid like Kayaa with another year under his belt, and another year in the weight room for Coley to get bigger/stronger, all while being the far and away #1 passing target.
If he goes pro, i see him drafted around the 4th/5th, similar to Diggs with the same concerns, unless he KILLS the combine. Diggs ran a 4.46 at the combine, so Stacy would need to do about the same or better.
