Georgia receiver AJ Green is still debating whether or not to leave school early for the riches of the NFL.
According to Tim Tucker of The AJC, Green yesterday “mentioned the threat of an NFL lockout and his mother’s desire for him to get his college degree” as reasons to stay in Athens. “On the other hand, he mentioned the risk of injury if he returns to school for his senior season.”
“I’m not going to make that decision right yet,” Green said. He also added that in the end, “you’ve got to do what is best for you.”
So much for that talk of Green “owing” Georgia fans another year due to his suspension.
In fairness to Green, football players have a short lifespan in the game. If a player can go and lock up millions — and it’s likely Green would be a top 10 if not top five pick — then he should probably do it.
