KeiVarae Russell Is Leaving Notre Dame

Notre Dame lost another player early to the NFL when KeiVarae Russell announced he would enter the draft.

Russell joins Prosise, Fuller, and Stanley into the NFL draft with a year of eligibility left on the table at Notre Dame. Well… Kind of.

KeiVarae Russell had to petition the NCAA for a fifth year of eligibility, as he was not guaranteed that year due to an academic suspension. The thing is… The NCAA isn’t exactly known for their quick decisions. Quite frankly, King Henry VIII probably had an easier time getting a decision on his divorce to Queen Catherine from the pope -AND HE LEFT THE CHURCH ALL TOGETHER.
