Barring unforseen circumstances, he'll be starting by his RS Sophomore year for sure. I'm darn near sure he won't play next year, it would be a total waste, wouldn't you agree?Quote:

3 years is a waste? He tore at least his ACL, maybe more. He won't play this year because he won't be ready for the start of the season. What's the point of wasting a year of eligibility on an ultra talented guy who won't have the system down mentally or physically by the start of the season?
^He is studying the playbook right now, he has graduated already and moved and was at Spring Practice, I read somewhere that he may be ready by fall practice but if he's not Dabo will do what's right, he gets paid the big bucks to make those decisions.
Boyd is going to be redshirted. Korn, Parker, and even Wade are so far ahead of Boyd in terms of knowing the system. And Korn and Parker have both been pretty impressive thus far this spring. Boyd has no shot of contibuting in 2009. Not redshirting him would be a waste of a year of his eligibility.
I knew someone sensible would agree with me! :hi5:Quote:

Parker cannot go pro in baseball until after his junior year. He'll be at Clemson for at least two more years.Quote:

Basically, it keeps kids in school. The NBA/NCAAB should really implement this rule. If a player doesn't want to go to school, don't make him go. Its stupid to make a kid show up for one year. If they do commit to a school, make them actually COMMIT to at least three years. Solves the 1 and done problem, but it makes too much sense for the NCAA to do it.Quote:

Parker started school in the spring of 2008. The earliest he'd complete his junior year is fall of 2010. The first MLB draft available to Parker would be the June 2011 draft.
Exactly. He's a baseball sophomore for eligibility reasons, but is still a freshman overall.Quote:
