Who Is Coming Back?

JoJo, Honas and Stille are likely coming back. They all need another good season to get drafted. Right now they would go UDFA. You make a lot more money by getting drafted than you do going as a UDFA. 


Is this a guess or have you read/heard anything. You are the second poster who mentioned JoJo coming back.
There are situations where it makes sense to come back for another year, but I can't see how being a fringe player who is a year older at 23+ benefits them when teams could draft/give an UDFA contract to a similar caliber player at 20/21 years old.

Now, if they want to come back because they love college football, want the experience then great.  But I think the draft talk for all but Jaimes this year, maybe CTB if he goes, is most likely a moot point.

 
Unless he gets drafted, I think Mills is the only one who could potentially benefit from an extra year. No NFL team gives UFA RBs a true shot unless they’re hurting on depth, and you’d have to land on one of the two teams who did it this year. Jacksonville and Miami. 

The emotional aspect of making the NFL is priceless for a competitor, just need to figure out the business aspect. Roughly $200,000 to be a practice player, cut that in half after taxes and fees vs maybe a full season of productivity, start into graduate school, earn NIL income, and *maybe* find yourself in the later rounds next year. 
 

I just don’t see any non-Frost or non-Nebraska guys coming back.
You must have never heard of Kyle Shanahan. Who has started Jeff Wilson Jr, Raheem Mostert, Matt Breida and Alfred Morris.

Yep and they are 6-9 doing it.  Last year when they made the Super Bowl, they did use Breida (scored 1 TD), and Mostert (8 TDs) with Tevin Coleman (6 TDs). Coleman of course was a 3rd round pick (also an All American at Indiana).

I don't really see a correlation either way, more about the line and the QB.

If he has decided one way or the other he is keeping it pretty quiet.  Word I am getting is exactly what Mav said.  He is still considering options, one of which is coming back for another season.  

 
Absolutely best news. He was the main senior I wanted back. CTB will also he huge if he stays. Maybe JoJo returning will parlay into Stille and Honas

 
JOJO IS BACK BABY!!!
