If I had been advising Gurley, I would have told him not to come back after his suspension. Thank his teammates and the fans and get ready for the combine.
Didn't work out too well for him in the short run, but luckily he survived.

The fact that he DID come back speaks to him being a great teammate and a DGD. Maybe I wouldn't have been.

Absolutely - go for it, KM!

You'll only get one shot - take it. Your knees won't be any good in 30 years either way - take it from me on that, and I never even blew mine out. That degree is your safety net.

LSU has a higher standard than we do:

The chatter from Tuscaloosa is that Kirby will take a hc job somewhere and Saban will probably hire Pruett.

People that play sports at a high level don't just give up dreams like that if they still think they can do it.

He was a 5 star recruit out of high school, and if he's healthy there's no reason not to go for it. If he's healthy there is no reason to not see him making it, and if he's not at least he gave it a try and not live the rest of his life wondering "if". We will never know if he was back to 100%... didn't get a chance to show us here.

(and NO, I do not believe that Richt not giving him a chance to prove it means he wasn't back to 100%. MR has questionable motives with some of his personnel decisions)

Don't know about his minimal play in prior games but didn't play last week because he hurt his ankle in the UK game.

I'm talking about the prior games mainly.

It's pretty obvious he was 4th on the depth chart before the Chubb injury, and just wasn't going to get any significant PT here even after Nick went down.
