For all those claiming "what if he gets injured" he'll have a mulit million dollar insurance policy.
From 2006: "If Reggie Bush suffers a career-ending injury in the Rose Bowl, he'll lose out on the millions of dollars that would have greeted him in the professional ranks. Don't worry, though. He's covered. Bush, this year's Heisman Trophy winner and projected No. 1 pick in the NFL draft, holds insurance policies that cover him for up to $6 million. So he has financial protection against an injury, not only in the Rose Bowl, but also on a 24-hour basis until he signs a professional contract or Aug. 1, whichever comes first. Some of his teammates at Southern Cal also are heavily insured. Quarterback Matt Leinart came back for his senior season in possession of an insurance policy for untold millions, while running back LenDale White ($2 million policy) and wide receiver Steve Smith ($1 million) both played this year with insurance protection in place. "

Its hard to pass up the money, but if I were Barkley? No way in hell I'd leave. Who would pass up the opportunity to be the BMOC at USC for one whole year? I'm certain there are quite a few perks to that. Helps make the missed out millions a little easier.

Being an NFL team's starting QB wouldn't be just the same?

Plus he'll make almost double the money in the pros that he makes in college.

No, I don't believe so.

Barkley has serious momentum right now. Or he could end up Leinerting himself. I'd have gone, but he's evidently willing to gamble on himself and there's something to be said for that. The good news is that this really did appear to be a shallow QB class at the top anyway. Maybe his addition to next year's draft pool will help us more than being in this year's pool would have.
