You can laugh iahawks, but this happens a lot in the pros. When you have a position that requires speed, they will drop someone down a round or two if they have any concerns. He has more to lose than he has to gain coming back. Has nothing to do with anything else. It's good when Iowa kids can hit it big, I would say the same thing if this was an ISU player.
I think he should go too, but it wouldn't be too mad if he came back.
Nope, totally what is best for him. If Tampa said he was using his Covid year, I would be going nuts for ISU, but would admit it is the wrong decision. Cooper needs to go and strike while the iron is hot. What does he have to gain at this point by coming back? Injuries? A poor season? Not much to increase his stock. For Cooper, he needs to go.
Dejean is a freak athlete. Speed is not a reason he would drop in the draft.

He has an injury, I dont know what his 40 time is, lets just say he runs a 4.40 right now. If he would come back next year and is running a 4.50, people may say the injury isn't going to let him back. That would hurt him. Even if he runs it a little slower now, he can just saying rehab is still going and I'm not going to run it due to that, but here are my previous times. If he is slowed by the injury is where the speed situation could hurt him.Dejean is a freak athlete. Speed is not a reason he would drop in the draft.
College football Freaks List 2023: Bruce Feldman's rankings with a true freshman at No.1
This year's list includes 101 players with physical abilities that wow even those who observe gifted athletes every day.
Thought I saw on twitter that he would be out something like 6 or 7 weeks. So you would think he would be fine by combine time.
Hand size? I’ll just go by what Bud Grant told me was his number one attribute for CBs—“They better be able to run.”
I think shuttle and the 3 cone drill get looked at more by evaluators. Straight line speed is great, but the ability to change directions followed by quick acceleration can tell a lot more.
You would think, but you never know how kids come back from injury. Sometimes its better for them to wonder if you are fully back than to go out there and prove you aren't if you actually aren't
Well, you know what they say about a man with big hands...........
Tj is a better cover corner, DeJean has special teams potential.
If Cooper runs like he did in the Minnesota game, he may drop to the third round...
Imagine how fast he would be if he pumped his arms instead of pointing and windmilling?If Cooper runs like he did in the Minnesota game, he may drop to the third round...
Better if they would have had him running while flailing his arms.
Smells like Captain Kirks doing. Reminds me of rhabdo award given to Doyle.
