Underclassmen declaring late … We have had several inquiries today why several underclassmen including RB Quinshon Judkins and WR Emeka Egbuka and S Xavier Watts and CB Ben Morrison of Notre Dame were announcing today, several days after the nominal deadline for underclassmen to apply for early entry to the 2025 draft, that they were in fact entering the draft. In fact, underclassmen who played in the national championship game this week – between Ohio State and Notre Dame – were given an extension until today to file paperwork with the league to be eligible for the upcoming draft.
