- (5:00 PM): Auburn WR to enter draft … Auburn junior WR Sammie Coates announced at a press conference earlier this afternoon that he will be leaving school and entering the 2015 draft where he projects to be a second day selection. The 6-2, 205-pound Coates, who is one of the fastest receivers in the country, averaged 24 yards per catch this fall, although his route-running and hands need a lot of work. Meanwhile, Auburn is still waiting to hear from fellow junior WR D’haquille Williams who is also mulling his pro prospects and could ultimately be the better prospect than Coates.
- (9:00 AM): Cards FS to enter draft … Ball-hawking Louisville redshirt sophomore FS Gerod Holliman has reportedly announced that he will be entering the 2015 draft where he is projected to be one of the first 2-3 safeties off the board. The 6-0, 205 Holliman, a consensus All-American who won the Jim Thorpe award given annually to the outstanding DB in the country, tied the NCAA’s single-season record for interceptions this season with 14. However, while he’s a terrific pass defender with great hands and instincts, Holliman isn’t all that physical a tackler in space which could keep him out of this year’s opening round and drop him to the second day.
