Xenon Posted January 8, 2006 Posted January 8, 2006 I think that it is the right decision for him. With his playing style, it is all too possible for him to get hurt next season and never get the chance to turn pro. He is good enough to handle it already and he will grow faster in the professional league where he has to work harder to catch up with the other people who are better than him than he would staying in college and being what everyone else strives for.

Xukaniz Posted January 8, 2006 Posted January 8, 2006 Meh, how lame. If I recall correctly he swore to his grandmother that he would get a college degree before turning pro. Whatever floats his boat I guess. Quote
sax5warrior Posted January 8, 2006 Author Posted January 8, 2006 Meh, how lame. If I recall correctly he swore to his grandmother that he would get a college degree before turning pro. Whatever floats his boat I guess. eh...its back to the 11-2 seasons again....geez...and Xukaniz, you are correct, he did swore to his grandma that he would finish is degree, i think its all for the best though...dont expect him to be drafted by Houston though...

G'townPIT Posted January 8, 2006 Posted January 8, 2006 i hope his grandma has a good talk with him about finishing up! but if he does what matt leinhart did and stayed for his senior season, well, look at what happened to matt leinhart... but we've got so many returning starters, i think 22 or 21 out of 24, that's not a bad stat.

Danpod Posted January 8, 2006 Posted January 8, 2006 Much like Michael Vick, he'll need the proper offensive scheme in order to be a winner. Vick is in this West Coast offense **** with a coach that won't let him run around the field and create plays. Con to a running Quarterback: He can break. If he can avoid people, then obviously that won't be much of a problem but can he take an open field hit against a Brian Urlacher??? That'll be interesting to see. I can see The Saints taking him. Their quarterback practically quit towards the end of the season and they'll need some fresh blood to rejuvinate the organization. Plus, the fan base won't have to move far at all. Quote
sax5warrior Posted January 8, 2006 Author Posted January 8, 2006 2006 Draft Order 1 Houston Texans 2 New Orleans Saints 3 Tennessee Titans 4 New York Jets 5 Green Bay Packers 6 Oakland Raiders 6 San Francisco 49ers 8 Buffalo Bills 9 Detroit Lions 10 Arizona Cardinals Quote
Xenon Posted January 8, 2006 Posted January 8, 2006 This is the way that I see it happening. Houston takes Bush. New Orleans takes Leinart. Tennessee takes Young. Quote
G'townPIT Posted January 8, 2006 Posted January 8, 2006 NOOOO! why vincent why? breaking news: he just decided to skip his senior season Quote
euro_euph06 Posted January 8, 2006 Posted January 8, 2006 When I first heard about it, I was like "uh..no." So I looked an online and behold: Vince Going Pro Next year should be interesting with a freshmen QB. I agree with Xenon on the order of the draft for the first three people. Quote
ClaireAnnette07 Posted January 10, 2006 Posted January 10, 2006 I hope the Houston Texans take him....sorry guys, but we need some serious help! This might sound really dumb, but I dont know anything about football....why can't the Texans take both Reggie Bush AND Vince Young? Quote
sax5warrior Posted January 10, 2006 Author Posted January 10, 2006 I hope the Houston Texans take him....sorry guys, but we need some serious help! This might sound really dumb, but I dont know anything about football....why can't the Texans take both Reggie Bush AND Vince Young? yep, yall need help really bad, the reason you cant take 2 players in the draft is because each team is allowed with only 1 draft pick per round (7) so with being 32 teams, theres no chance they will draft both of them (unless you trade them) and besides, Houston wont take Young because yall already got David Carr as QB, yall may take Reggie but not Young p.s need football 101? contact me Quote
cookie_monster Posted January 11, 2006 Posted January 11, 2006 ok if this is completely wrong please let me know but this is what I heard through the grapevine. He's not going to get his degree now because he's going pro BUT I heard that he was majoring in teaching and right now he's student teaching which means he's SO close to having that degree. And we know Texas will keep him another year for ANOTHER great season. I think he should finish college first but that's his choice so good luck to Houston! Quote
stewiemylove Posted January 18, 2006 Posted January 18, 2006 slightly dissapointing, but i think its in his best intrests for sure think he could walk out onto the field first day of practice for another year at UT and get injured, and all those contracts for the NFL will be gone but if he takes a 10million $$ contract comes and he walks onto the field for the first day of practice for some pro team, he might not be playing but he still has 10 million buckaroos SOOOO Quote
Danpod Posted January 18, 2006 Posted January 18, 2006 Don't worry. He'll split time with McNair for the Titans. Not a bad mentor to have. Quote
mbui Posted January 18, 2006 Posted January 18, 2006 As a Houston sports fan... I would be pissed if the Tennessee Titans took him. Bud Adams, Houston Oilers/Tennesee Titans owner, once again stealing another Houston product?? BS. Quote
mbui Posted January 18, 2006 Posted January 18, 2006 I've lobbied for the Texans to select Reggie Bush since the beginning. But, after what happened in the national championship game, the gap has decreased between he and Vince Young. I'm interested to see how Bush will do in the pros against bigger and stronger players. Bush is 6'0 and his body is built is a lot smaller than most running backs in the league. Also, my patience is starting run a little thin with David Carr. Seeing what I saw in the last couple of games of the season makes me question his ability to lead the franchise. If the Texans select Reggie Bush, great. If the Texans select Vince Young, great. It's a win-win situation for me. Oh yeah, who do I want for Texans head coach? Gary Kubiak, Denver Broncos Offensive Coordinator. He'll be a perfect fit for the organization. Quote
