Yall think he comes back next season either way?
Well it is pretty much public knowledge around campus that Evans is gone. I think it is 50/50 with Sutton. Depends on seriousness of injury and what NFL says I would think.
I wish Evans would go to NFL Advisory Board because they will tell him to stay in school for sure.
Corey is not declaring for the draft, he def will be coming back one more year for CFB. My only concern is if it will be with App... But my gut tells me he will be wearing #2 for the Black and Gold next season.
The only thing that would change this is revolving around what this injury is.

With Darrynton remember he blew his knee out Freshman year. He should go to the NFL Advisory Board but I don’t see him getting any better. I think they tell him to declare.

I don’t disagree with your rationale for Evans leaving. I will challenge it based on one comment. You stated that it is pretty much common knowledge around campus that he is leaving. I would imagine that the coaches would have a sense of this as well and prepare accordingly. The lack of activity on recruiting a RB leads me to believe that he is coming back. If he were leaving, they would have a spot for a RB, and not knowing the extent of Harrington and Peoples’ status for next year, one would think that they would bring someone in late. That hasn’t happened.

This draft's upcoming WR class is said to be probably the best in 15 years, so Sutton might want to wait a year, especially if his injury will require more than 6 months to heal.

Harrington could have played yesterday if needed. He's healthy. People's will be back by next year. We will have Marcus Williams back. Raykwon will be back. Also have Ben Williams redshirting and the coaches really like him. We are still loaded at RB even without Evans. Only concern for me is the injury history of Harrington and how fast People's gets back into trusting his knee again.

Corey definitely is not. He will be back. He has no reason to leave. I would doubt his mental side if he was dumb enough to think he can't accomplish what he wants at App. He saw his dad go to the NFL from App so it is not like he hasn't seen it first hand.

NFL Advisory Board gives a 1st rd, 2nd rd, or stay in school feedback to players. Since they stopped giving grades past 2nd round it has hurt players because now agents tell players when they are told to stay in school that they would have been a 3rd or 4th round grade so they are close. Evans will not be told to come out. The NFL would encourage him to stay but the agents are the ones who push players to go. Evans is good enough to make it but he would be a 5-7 pick and be a backup. He could improve and go much higher with another year.

It is and this RB class is stacked. Evans will not go undrafted like Duck did but he won't be a 3rd or 4th round pick like he expects. I bet he goes super late in 4 or 5-6 range.

Yes. I know Harrington dressed yesterday. Not my point. We are loaded yes. But we are loaded with potential. Without Evan’s returning next year, the only one returning back that has proven to be reliable is Williams. That doesn’t mean that the others aren’t good, they look like they are, but none of them have put together a full season yet. My point is that the coaches would have looked for some RB options as the recruiting season progressed if it was known that he was leaving.

So a recruit is more reliable than players that are already here? Interesting..

I am not that sold on Evans. He is durable but I don’t think he’s our best back. Sutton I feel will be back to finish this right. Harrington won’t go I don’t believe.
Very sad for Sutton. He will be back. Hope he gets well!

We always have good running backs. And a lot of them.
Evans better than Moore? He might be more athletic, but look at the body of work. Both excellent.

Hate this for Cory. By all accounts he sure sounds like a young man who has what it takes to recover. Time for his brothers in the receiving core to step up and have his back. I think they both can and will.

I hope all of you approach Evans and encourage him to stay in school! He is getting heavy pressure and the idiots out there who have no clue the danger of coming out early in this class are loud. This RB and WR class is one of the best in a long time. Next year won't be nearly as good so he has a better shot to go in the top 100. I'm told he is planning to go but I do hope enough people show him how much we care and encourage him to stay.

That’s not at all what I am saying. RB is a position of attrition and one that you consistently recruit, unless you stable is full. If we are losing a player early at that position then it would stand to reason that they would want to backfill it, especially at RB.

Transfer portal may be where we go for a RB and at least 1 OL. Wolfpack Club member thinks we may be gaining a transfer by Christmas.

Marcus Cox. Most productive back we ever had. Hardly a look from the NFL. Evans is good but the league is stacked with great athletes. Be smart , get your degree.

It really is none of our business to give Evans’ advice on what we feel is in the best interest of him or his family. I’m sure your intentions are honorable, but this is up to him and his family, if this is actually an issue.
