    Damn that was fast, were you at the press conference? Did he stop by and talk with you before making the decision? :roll:

    Big time decision for Floyd, it's a bit of a risk, but his evaluation came back and projected him as a 2nd or 3rd round WR I believe and there are a ton of WR's in this years draft. So I assume he figures next year he'll 1) stay healthy and 2) catch a ton of passes for an improved Irish offense and work his way maybe into the 1st round in 2012.

    Really a big plus for the Irish though.

    At least no one will have to speculate who the best WR is in college football next year.

    Huge plus for the Irish....the kid is going to be a beast to defend with another year in the film and weight room and the added experience with Kelly's system.....

    I promised him that I would keep a lid on it until the public announcement. :wink:

    Floyd is one of several players who obviously improved under these coaches. For the first time in a long time we're seeing some real player development...
