WarEagle84 0 Posted December 14, 2014 Share Posted December 14, 2014 I would love to see Sammie back at Auburn, but I will certainly understand if he goes pro. He has his degree (good for him!) and he will do what he believes is best for Sammie, based on a lot of variables no one on this board is privy to. It's hard enough as a young man to make major decisions in your life without having it play out in public while surrounded by people with selfish interests trying to influence your decision. I wish him great success whatever he decides. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dual-Threat Rigby 8,679 Posted December 15, 2014 Share Posted December 15, 2014 I can't stand Mel Kiper. I remember when Emory Blake was a junior he said that Blake was the BEST JUNIOR WR in the country. Blake didn't even get drafted. LOL! What the hell?

If anybody can get folks to settle down over there, it's you, Dixie.

AUinNashTN 0 Posted December 15, 2014 Share Posted December 15, 2014 It seems he will play in the Senior Bowl as well. This is one of the reasons I why I love Sammie as a player. He just loves to play the game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

around4ever 4,139 Posted December 15, 2014 Share Posted December 15, 2014 Selfishly, I would like for Sammie to stay but considering that he has a degree and may get 2nd round money, I don't blame him one bit. Thanks to Sammie for all he has done for Auburn and I wish him the very best at the next level. I will be a fan of Sammie's forever. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
