Brock Bowers ‘not sure yet’ on his decision for Orange Bowl, NFL draft
While Carson Beck has made his intentions clear regarding the Orange Bowl and NFL draft, his leading receiver is still making up his mind.
Comments
WOULD LOVE TO SEE BROCK RETURN BUT SURE CAN'T BLAME HIM IF HE DOESN'T
Still holding out hope that Bowers comes back - it has got to bother him that he missed out on those 3 games. Certainly don't blame him for cashing in, he deserves it...still hoping....
As much as I would love to see him back, it’s a business. He will be a top 10 lock already. No need to risk it. He gave his all and left it on the field. Proud of all he has done and the legacy he’ll leave behind.
I expect to see him in uniform for the bowl game, but I don't expect him to have serious playing time, if any. This young man has already done everything you could possibly ask of him. In my opinion he's the best offensive player UGA has had since Herschel, and I'm really looking forward to seeing him play on Sundays. Go Dawgs!
BB is an absolute Dawg legend, and that's NOBULL!
He's trying to get over an injury. He put it all on the line to try to get us into the playoffs. He's been one heck of a player. FOrtunate to watch him play. No need to risk injury at this point. Go get paid!
Even if he doesn't play in the ORange Bowl. You know that everything inside of him wants to. That's just how he's wired!
In the BIG SCHEME of things, I see BB's heart compel him to participate in the Orange Bowl.....Just One More, for BOOM, BB! Then I can't wait to see where this DGD hits in the first round??
Extremely Selfish on my part, and please forgive me, but I wish he’d come back. That said, No Way, No How could I blame him for going to the NFL. To echo the many comments here he laid it all on the field as a Dawg. If anyone in this year’s draft Deserves BIG things to happen For him it’s Brock Bowers.
He will absolutely go down as a Hall Of Fame Legend and Elite DGD !! Dawg Nation Loves You Brock Bowers !! Brock Bowers for President !!! As much as he’s done he could Easily do that to !! Go Dawgs !! P.S. I think Brock might be leaving a syringe full of his DNA to Oscar Delp !!!
So the headline made it seem as if Brock hasn't reached a decision on whether to play in the bowl game OR turn pro. But reading the story closely, it just seems as if he's trying to decide whether he will play in the bowl game. But unless he's planning to be back at UGA next year (which, though I would love, I highly doubt) I don't think he should play in the Orange Bowl. Get healthy for the draft, young man. You've already done enough for UGA. But again, if you are of the Peyton Manning ilk and think the NFL can wait a year, we got plenty of room on the bus for you. Go Dawgs!
Brock needs to do what is best for him at this point. Nothing else to prove. He's the #1 TE and the #6th player overall in the upcoming NFL Draft (nfldraftbuzz.com). He's given so much these past few years. Key part of UGAs success. Time to heal up completely and get ready for the next journey.
He has to do what’s best for him, but not the comment about the bowl game that I expected. 🤨
There's always the possibility...
That, the "people he needs to talk to"...may be Doctors. Not Agents or Lawyers.
He may be hurt worse than they let on.
