As for Tounde, I have a theory which may be based on little more than hope. I wonder if the agent leaked the story that TY is staying in the draft to give him leverage for more money from college.
The more realistic alternatives a player has the better his bargaining position. The fact that the statement seems to have come from his agent, and not the player, makes me wonder if it is ploy. The economics of TY staying in the draft don't make sense.
OTOH, maybe the young man just doesn't want to be in college at this point in his life.
I am just a little skeptical when the reports come from only one guy, who is not a major journalist.
