Kinlaw “Tweets” He’s Coming Back

[Carolina4]

Kinlaw just tweeted, “Yes I’m coming back to school so stop asking. Relax.”

Still, a lot can change between now and decision making time but that’s a good start.

Tweet That

Another top recruit!! Maybe Muschamp is changing our fortunes on juniors coming back for their senior season.

He was thinking about transferring? Are there people that think he would get drafted in the first few rounds?

Great news!

Good player, good size at a position highly valued in the NFL. We’ve had guys leave and not get drafted in recent history. The State had him at 85% gone (which was ridiculous) in their projections. Let’s just be glad a contributor chose to stay. Hopefully he’ll have a great senior season and make some $$.

He will definitely be one of not our best returning player on D. Just don't understand who gets in these kids ears and let's them believe that it would be a good move to leave early, when I have not seen any projection where they would be picked in the first 3 rounds or so.

Probably a 4th/5th round selection, outside chance at 3rd, but we've lost juniors who weren't projected that high quite a bit before. This is a nice change.

I think the new system with the NFL projections should help with this. Believe I heard that if they are fairly certain your not going to be a top 3 round pick, they just tell them that they should go back to school.

Agree. But I thought it was three grades...1st round, 2nd round, return to school.

I think you are right. That's probably where I was getting the "3" from.

Seems to be a smart kid and realized there was not a good opportunity for him to be drafted early cause other D-lineman on teams playing in the championship rounds are ahead of him.

That's been the distressing thing. People left when it didn't even pay them to go...

Unlike you I and other posters are not asking why, we are just glad he is returning and view his decision whatever the reason great new. Unlike some posters, Kinlaw is Gamecock through and through. He worked hard to get eligible and admitted. Heck, he even turned down Bama and Saban.

You are correct sir

Yeah I saw 5-6 round projection but if he could improve his technique and strength he could be 1-2

He needs to be full time at the 5 technique he isnt a nose unless he puts back on the 30 or 40 lbs he lost

Reading comprehension must not be your strong suit. My question was why he thought it was necessary to anounce he was coming back. Of course I'm glad he is not leaving the team, not sure what his options were.

Plus a stronger crew around him will give him more one on one opportunity

I haven't seen a single Jr. who should leave early for the NFL.

 

[ken in sacramento]

He’ll be back and highly motivated. Extremely good news.
