It’s that time of year.
No, we’re not talking about bowl games or the College Football Playoff.
We’re talking about the players who are contemplating leaving early for the NFL.
Last year it was Miami Hurricanes quarterback Brad Kaaya, running back Joe Yearby and tight end David Njoku, with Njoku picked by Cleveland 29th overall in the first round.
Kaaya, who became a practice-squad player with the Detroit Lions, went in the sixth round to the Lions; and Yearby went undrafted.
During his radio interview with WQAM’s Joe Rose on Monday, University of Miami coach Mark Richt was asked if he would soon speak to underclassmen thinking about entering the NFL Draft.
