The NBA has a one and done rule. Talented basketball players who years ago would have been allowed to enter the draft out of high school now have to "serve" one season in the NCAA.
You don't see those guys quitting on their teams, do you? Do you see Andrew Wiggins say, "I shouldn't even be here right now. I should be making real money. This one year of college thing is bullshit, so I'm just going to take care of my body and look out for #1 here."
The NFL is no different, only it's 2 years of mandatory play. And players like Clowney who could potentially be drafted after their freshman seasons are very very rare. Does that excuse Clowney, though? No, it should not.
Spurrier I think should be making a bigger deal out of this that it's not okay to flake out on your teammates.
