Not getting drafted very high taking a whole year off

Why not? If you're not playing a bowl game for fear of injury, think of how even less likely you are to get injured if you just don't play any games at all. If your bowl game is meaningless, then ultimately your season was meaningless and you will have played twelve games, risking injury, for nothing. Better to just skip the season and focus on the much less dangerous combine.

The rational response to this is if you’re going to skip a whole year you would obviously just declare and go get drafted the year before. No use passing up 1 year of an NFL paycheck

Your stock isn’t going up by sitting out a year to train as you proposed

There isn't one. All we know is that Yurcich was interviewed a couple weeks ago and no one else since then (unless done very secretly). Seems Pruitt is keeping this very quiet with little leaks. Hubbs said that UT was a little upset that the Yurcich interview got out. Feels like it's Yurcich and won't happen until after OSU plays their bowl game 12/31.

All the other names are just pure speculation. Guys like Sark, Brown, Long, etc...are all just speculation mostly due to Doug Matthews saying it's been done but the timing isn't right yet to announce. Will be after the new year and before the dead period ends.

I think it's Yurcich.

I am hoping its him also ! I must say this is the first time that have seen such a tight lipped hire for an position coach. Shows me CP means business not worried about pleasing people but going to do it his way which I do appreciate pass or fail.

Sounds good. Just do that. Cut to the chase.

I agree with you, BUT Auburn was in a very similar situation last year against UCF. Who knows if Lindsey was a big part of Auburn’s problems lately or not, just saying the optics aren’t in his favor. Malzahn is obviously scheming for his job here, Purdue’s lack of defensive speed is just making it that much easier.

Optics...🤮

About when did "no-showing" in bowl games become more common? Is that just a thing when teams don't want to be there for whatever reason? Anyone got any examples from past years?

Also, what about NFL prospects sitting out bowl games? That has mos def become the cool thing to do in the last 2 - 4 years, but are there many instances when a player opted out of a bowl game before this "era"?

What are the causes, and what are some possible solutions (e.g. expanded playoff via the existing bowl games)?

Bueller?

Us in the peach against Maryland and Clemson in the early 2000s iirc.
