"So he and I met, maybe a week after his injury, and there is basically three different directions, options, that he can go," Mendenhall said, presumably referring to: 1) Opting for the NFL draft, 2) Returning to BYU for a final season, or 3) Retiring from football completely and pursuing a career in the finance industry.
"Where we left it is we will let the entire season go, all the way through the bowl game, let schooling, job opportunities, NFL assessments, all that happen, get as much information as we can, and then I will advise him at that point," Mendenhall continued.
