Texas QB Vince Young (official thread)
On Pardon The Interruption Young says he's not even thinking about whether he'll come back to school next year and indicated it depends on how he's evaluated by NFL types. He said he'd love to play for the Texans. My guess... he's outta here.

Top 10 pick, maybe Top 5 I guess.
If it were me, I'd be gone.
Of course, I said that same thing about Leinart.

I don't think i agree with that assessment entirely. I didn't hear him mention the evaluations (although that logically seemed likely to me). Plus while he talked up his local Texans. When asked if he would be happy to hear his name called by them he responded "I wouldn't have a choice *ha*" |

Those questions weren't leaving him a whole lot of room to say otherwise.

if he leaves this year, there is no way he is a top 5 pick. he probably wont play quarterback in the NFL anyways and you can almost predict 3 out of the top 5 picks(Hawk, Bush, Leinart)
If he were to stay an extra year, he might boost his stats enough to go top 5. i would have to agree with you though. i would leave too. an extra year in the pros means more money and a little bit longer of a career(barring injury) that's what my philosophy would be. |

What other position would he possibly play? I think Young has proved that he can effectively pass the ball, and is a great runner, too. This guy got it done with his arm against us (unfortunately), when he couldn't rack up yards on the gorund. I think Young will be a Top Five pick, but I don't think he'll go to the Texans because David Carr is a good QB when his O-Line blocks well. That's totally off-topic, though. I believe Vince Young has the speed, size, and arm to get it done in the NFL, and I would gladly take him on my team (if I was an NFL GM).

If Vince Young were to leave Texas this year it would throw the entire question of who might be under center in Austin completely up in the air.
Frankly, I don't see Young going back on his publicly stated word to return.

I'm almost certain that if UT wins the championship this year, then Vince Young will not return next year. I think that the Rose Bowl could be Young's last game, depending on what the outcome is.
