So long, Sam: Bradford should bolt to NFL

Sam Bradford is one heck of a quarterback, which is kind of a moot point, now that he's the Heismann trophy winner, but I expect to see him around at least another season for the Sooners. He's a great college player, but I think it's a bit of a "over-dose" to say that this is as high as he will ever go. He can come back next season and do the same. As for the NFL, he's still got a little more growing left in him, and I think he should probably take it before moving to the NFL. As a Sooner myself, I would hate to see him go against the likes of Troy Palamaulu and come away hurt. I expect to see him wearing Crimson and Cream next season, and the last time I checked, the NFL didn't have a team with those colors.

What do you mean Bradford didn't have a Heisman moment, tool? Obviously you didn't watch the OU/OSU game were Bradford did his best impression of a helcopter crashing into the endzone. That's why stats are so important, they can't be changed even if the sports writer is biased. They are what they are!

I've got a question for you, if Maualuga pulled a Tebow after the Oregon State game, where he cried and told reporters how nobody would outwork them and the whole 9 yards, would USC be playing in the title game, or would he have been seriously mentioned for the Heisman? I ask because it seems that all everyone talks about is how Tebow is such a great leader and what not, and so deserving because he made that plea, and Florida cruised through the rest of the year. Seeing as how the USC defense played pretty lights out the rest of the year, I think the comparison is pretty apt.

No where for him to go but down. Just ask Matt Leinart how much money he lost by stayiong in school one more year and losing the Heisman to his teammate (BUSH.)Needs to go pro now and maximize his monetary potential

He is redshirt sophmore and is rated the #2 draft pick by Rivals.com this means millions. All he has to be told is remember Matt Leinart from USC that went from a # 1 or 2 pick from the year before when he won the Heisman to a 10th pick the next year. Bradford is hot. As much as I don't want Matthew Stafford to jump how do you turn down millions now.

I'm like Colin, Sam's dive for the endzone was awesome (but as a Mom, scared me to death!!). Was so glad to see him get up with a smile!! I also hope he will wait one more year before going to the NFL. Sometimes we as a society push young athletes into the next level before they are physically and mentally mature enough to handle the brutality of football these days. Hope to see Sam back one more year!!

Bradford's as good as gone. Why would he stay another year at Chokelahoma? Just about his entire offensive line is leaving after this year, so next year his stats certainly won't be as good, and his stock will go down. Bradford's stats don't completely reflect his performance either. If mccoy and tebow were kept in the 4th quarter when there team is up by 40, their stats would be great to, their teams probably could have scored a lot more points as well.

OU loses its offensive line and 3 great receivers.
Bradford's stock can only drop next year if he returns. This was the best Oklahoma team of all time but they will probably lose to Florida.

I'm glad to say I'm Sooner born and Sooner bred. Sam Bradford should stay at Oklahoma (not Chokelahoma)Matt Lancaster, Pa. If he should go pro, more power to him. He needs to mature a little and then go pro. He will represent himself well no matter where he plays next year! Boomer!!!

SOONER! I'm just totally glad that Sam is staying. He has improved so much. Just hope that this year, the team will be as strong. They can't let the other team to get to him. He can't get hurt again!
