Montee Ball

Doug Gotleib just said on his radio show that Ball is coming back for his senior season.

Re: Montee Ball

I think he is making a mistake and is doing it totally based just on his emotions. I think he wants to come back and help his team after they have lost the coaches and Wilson. The problem is that his stock is now only going to drop. He will not have a better season than he did this year because they have no one to throw the ball. Running backs have a short shelf life in the NFL, you have to get as much as you can while you can.

Re: Montee Ball

Dumb move. Rb is one position that I think if you can get into the NFL you go for it.

Re: Montee Ball

This is bad for several reasons:

1. Wilson made Ball option 1a, not the only option, which is what he will now become.
2. Lose Zeitler, Ogelsby, and possibly Konz (JR) to the NFL, though the line will always be big and good up there
3. He will be a target. Teams will not let Montee Ball beat them

he should've gone, but if he wants to stay that is fine by me. You never know, maybe Iowa will get a shot at him in Indy (wink)

Re: Montee Ball

Maybe the pro scouts didn't think that highly of him.

I have a tough time believing that. He's not John Clay.
