Oh, and Mecca didn't just say what was best for Sanchez, but Sanchez and his family. His family is fine and wanted him to go back to school because they want the best for him.
When my 7 year old daughter wants to eat all of her Halloween candy in one sitting, she THINKS it is what is best for her. Being older and wiser, I don't allow it.
Now, Sanchez 'thinks' this is what is best for him. And, he isn't listening to anyone tell him differently.
The more I read about him, the happier I will be when the Chiefs don't take him.

Mecca didn't say that, I did. I believe every word of it too. At 22 years of age with a fully functional brain, I'd like to think he can weigh his options and pick what is best. His family might have disagreed and wanted him to graduate, but he might have felt financially, going early was best for them considering the potential rookie cap that might be placed.
I also think Bradford made a mistake by not leaving early. He might get drafted higher next year, but if a new CBA is in place and has a rookie cap, he missed out on a ton of money.
