More bye week speculation. Who returns out of Rochelle, J. Smith , K. Russell, Procise, Fuller, and Stanley.

I think Rochelle, Russell , Fuller and Procise return.
 
If he is able to count last year as a red-shirt this is correct but I am not sure how that works since it was related to a school suspension.
 
I am hoping it is still 5 years to play 4 and think he should come back to improve his draft status.
 
I believe he can count it since he didn't redshirt. I seem to remember the discussion about EG being that the suspended year counted against him because he had already redshirted, but I could be wrong.
 
I think Stanley and Fuller are gone. I hope Procise returns, him and Folston as one two punch would be a phenomenal combo to have. However, if Procise continues to tear it up I could easily see him make the jump. I think Kei is done after this year due to eligibility. I'm fairly certain that year counted against him.

Why would it when it didn't count against Golson?

The general rule is you have 5 years to play 4 years of football. This is his fourth year and including this year he has only played three years so he can play college football next year if he chooses.

Golson is different. He redshirted, played, suspended, played and then transferred out for the 5th year. Kei never redshirted
 
Why would Fuller come back ?
IMHO Fuller is without question ND's MVP. Any injury to him would impact ND's success more so than any other. Not to take anything away from Prosise.

It wouldn't surprise me if he chooses to return. Every player has his personal reasons for coming back. Degree, to make a legit run for a NC, enjoy the college experience, etc.

That said, I would also be surprised if he did return. He's NFL ready now. Speed, great hands, solid route running. Can't comment on his blocking ability or work ethic as I really haven't paid too much attention to either.

Also, next year teams will focus on stopping him. Double teams will become common place. He could drop in the draft as a result. Also the potential for injury could derail his draft status. The trend seems to be ....... If you are ready and projected top two rounds go. If not ... stay. He can always return to finish his degree

I would hope that Fuller,Prosise, Russell check their draft status in February ,March with pro scouts and pro teams before making a decicision .

I'm not sure of this,but can't they go to the combines before they have to decide if they want to declare for the draft .
 
No the combine comes after the deadline to declare. They will get their pre-draft evaluations though.
