Never mind. He’s been hurt and wouldn’t be able to get back in time.

Lame headline from ESPN.

OSU star Jaxon Smith-Njigba tells ESPN that he’s declaring for the NFL Draft and will not compete in the CFP. “I was unable to come back on multiple occasions during the season and the doctors determined I would be unable to participate in the playoffs.” https://t.co/oFd7JxkNJg

Wow. That’s really lame. I can understand opting out of bowl games, but CFP? Not

That's weak sauce. Legit chance at a national title and he bails on his team.

Wow, won’t even play for a chance at the title

I'd start attaching any NIL deals to playoff requirements etc.

Agreed. Full season including bowl or playoff or you give some back unless hurt.

12/5/22 12:58pm

Or start having bowls to carry insurance to cover NFL-bound players who get

Selfish. The school helped you achieve what you did so you owe them.

Hasn't played in more than a month, less than a full game all year.

So how is he a potential Top 10 pick then?

Yo - he's been out most of the year.

DataMouth

12/5/22 12:58pm

That doesn’t make sense to me. The argument would be to make sure he doesn’t get

12/5/22 12:59pm

Edit to this, didn’t see DieHarder’s next post

He hasn't played all year.

Geez. He's been hurt since the ND game in September. Sat out and tried to return

Not a big deal. Him and Stroud are part of OSU's B-squad anyway. -CB, Jan. '22

Who cares, he’s just an Ohio State third stringer according to many

That's great news. I don't care if he's still injured and on the bench during

Not going to be a high draft pick. Why risk a pick on somebody out that much UFA

Nat Gas Man

He’s hardly played all season. Buckeyes will be fine believe me

Not sure if he would have opted out regardless, but he hasn’t played all year
