Giger: There's a lot to like about Clifford, until he throws the ball

UNIVERSITY PARK, Pa. -- Let's set the record straight here: No, Sean Clifford was not "snubbed" because he wasn't invited to the NFL Scouting Combine.

He didn't deserve to be invited, because there's pretty much no one who believes he will be selected in next month's NFL draft.

That's just the reality. If a player has no draft buzz whatsoever, there's simply no room for him to be at the combine. That goes for any player, even one who had a pair of 11-2 seasons as the starting quarterback for a major program that includes a Rose Bowl victory and Cotton Bowl victory.
