Jumping ship to the NFL may seem like a pretty obvious decision for Penn State running back Saquon Barkley, but in his mind, it’s anything but.
Barkley admitted after Penn State’s Fiesta Bowl win that he was “torn” on jumping to the NFL, saying he felt he had unfinished business with the Nittany Lions.

Barkley has otherwise dodged questions about his draft status. He’d almost certainly be a top five pick if he elects to go pro, so it would be a real stunner if he ended up back at Penn State for his senior season.
