🤔 Wow...we knew this 2 weeks ago. 🤔

One more year he could have got drafted top 3 instead of top 5. Not sure what was going through his mind. 😁

Great career. We were fortunate to have him this year. Hope he goes in the top 5!

Guessing he isn't playing the Peach Bowl. Probably wants to avoid the shaming the media would give him if he'd played. At least we have several other guys who are honoring their commitments to the team.

lmao--yeah, he's worried about what the media thinks
Again, we're lucky he even returned this year--he completed his commitment when the season ended.

The PSU team's "season" isn't over until the bowl game has been played (for actual PSU football fans....), but I don't blame him if he chooses to sit out. It was great for PSU football that he came back for 2023 when he was projected as a top 15 pick in the 2023 draft. Without OT injuries it would give Shelton another game of experience and likely benefit the team in 2024. Hope we see Williams and possibly Onoh get into the bowl game at OT as well......

The season was over after the Michigan State game. It aligns with the portal opening and playoff teams being determined. The bowl game is a reward for a great, good, mediocre season that is clearly optional. Hell sometimes a subpar season gets teams a bowl game. Hopefully next year we're in the playoff and our season continues past 12 games.

Has any OT ever had as many passing snaps and allowed zero sacks? Could it be a record?

Actually, his own media site says he is playing in the Peach Bowl - apparently the game and team is far more meaningful to him than you people who talk for him claim (certainly isn't playing to improve his draft status as the board's leading idiot troll has claimed is the only reason someone who has declared for NFL would play - go figure! Dolt troll-boy wrong yet again - go figure.).

Maybe some of you people should stop speaking for these kids.

But he didn't choose to sit out - his own media site says he has declared for draft but is playing in Peach Bowl - dolt-boy doesn't speak for these athletes.

Nice having you back Bushwood.

Joe Thomas, with the browns (pro ball I know) played every single offensive snap for 9 years. In two consecutive years, he gave up zero sacks. Amazing

Maybe the jerkoffs should do everyone a favor and stop speaking or posting at all.
