Last day for undercklassmen

January 21, 2016

Last day for underclassmen to withdraw draft application … Underclassmen who applied for early admission to the 2016 draft, but have not yet signed with an agent, or otherwise have not received any monetary or related benefits, have until the end of business this afternoon to withdraw their applications without penalty. So far, there is no buzz that any of the over 100 juniors and redshirt sophomores who did reveal in one way or another that they planned to enter the upcoming draft are getting cold feet. Indeed, the only news in that regard is that LSU junior OT Jerald Hawkins recently signed with an agent making him eligible to change his mind. And once today’s deadline is completed, the NFL is expected to announce the official list of underclassmen eligible for the 2016 draft which almost always includes some new names.
