And don’t worry about the other fellows. They understand. Making money is more important than anything else in life. Right?
Glad you’re okay, Deebo.

No it’s not, unless you were willing to purchase a multi-million dollar insurance policy for him in case he had a career ending injury.
Lol, I don’t think Deebo would have made a difference. Jake was overthrowing everyone and receivers were dropping the ones that weren’t air mailed. A complete crap fest.
Man, I am quite glad for Deebo's sake he didn't play in this game. Jim Brown and Jerry Rice in their primes would have gotten injured if they played for the cocks in the Belk's Bowl.
It's because they were barely on the field. Hard to get hit when you're dropping every pass or overthrowing everything.
Actually the school can purchase insurance policy for the kids that have those concerns
I guess, I don't know. Point being is that one good player would not have made the difference today. UVA had a ton more guts and fortitude than our guys. No reason for Deebo or any other player worth a darn to risk playing for our outfit today.
Well no one did and imo, he made the right decision. He’s about to be worth money that most of us dream about.
That could be true.... However, I like our chances better if he is on the field... I am old school I admit, but if you can be there for the practices and be there for the game, hell, play the game....
Absolutely, why risk it, especially with a staff that spent so little time getting ready for this game
You do understand he's PLAYING in some senior bowl nonsense, right? BEFORE he gets drafted!!!
Deebo quit on his team. No other way to spin it.
Just curious, what round do you see him being drafted in? I don't think he is first round, and with being injury prone, maybe no even second round. I guess it obviously depends on certain team needs
How many first round draft picks played today and tonight
The Senior Bowl is played by high caliber talent and scouted by the pros. He’d likely hurt his draft status if he chose not to play.
Heck. I’d have to sit down and do some counting with rosters. It would take too much time.
The senior bowl is very different than the Belk's Bowl and is pretty important for anyone interested in boosting their draft stock.
I have no problem with him quitting. Money is a major issue.
Again, I know I am old school, and I know this generation is all about themselves, and I know he made a decision he believes was best for him, but there is no way I could be a healthy football player who practiced, sweated, and played with most of the players on the field for 3-5 years and just stand on the sideline and watch...
I'm also not a fan of Deebo being on the sideline or traveling. Either you're on the team or you're not. But yeah, I have no problem with Deebo quitting. People are acting like this is the first generation that cared about making money. I wish I was privileged enough to not have to worry about money, but alas.
Well, if you have faith in your 'NFL Talents' you might qualify for a loan with your 'sure' pro signing bonus and/or salary contract as a backup for the borrowed money.
kind of what I was thinking... Nothing is a guarantee for sure... I truly wish him the best, and always thought he was a great competitor... Thus my thought that one day he may hate the fact that his last game as a SC football player is standing on a side line..... healthy...
It’s not a matter of me having faith. It is a matter of you having none, and since you don’t, you should buy the insurance. That’s not hard to understand.
I could get hit by a train on the way to work next week. I wonder if my boss will understand that I am afraid I will be hurt on the way there so I am deciding not to come? My project team will just have to go ahead without me. I'll let them know on Twitter!
Exactly. He’s no longer our best player, in fact he’s not even a player. Don’t care what he’s done for us. He couldn’t play for us, but is playing in senior bowl.
Injury or not, it kind a set a "this game doesn't matter" or "me first" mentality and that showed in every facet of the game.
I'm a Gamecock fan, not an NFL draft fan. I pull for our teams and our players and hope they do well after leaving here. Quitting before the season is over blows though.
Just asking ... not attacking. Didn't Clowney do exactly that? Haven't many other potential professional prospects also done that?
I don't know but, thought that I have heard about that, often, before.
At least Deebo was honest about not wanting to play the Bowl game. Bentley and the rest of the team should have been honest and sat out instead of embarrassing us fans that showed up expecting them to give a shit and try. I won’t show up for this team again. I’m not wasting my time and money on these quitters.
Deebo Samuel is a quitter. I have no use for him.
Deebo can take his candy ass to hell as far as I’m concerned. I hate weak quitters.
