"By all accounts [t]his kid is all about the NFL, that's all he cares about, I can tell you one thing. When he's getting evaluated draft evaluators and front office personnel, there will be a massive red flag next to his name, knowing that when things got a little tough and they lost three in a row, he decided to walk out on his team. What does that tell you about his character and his competitive spirit?
"He's forever going be remembered as a quitter."

McElroy called it a 'selfish' move and he clearly doesn't think that it will help him when it comes to getting drafted. However, starting fresh at a JUCO and getting reps as a tight end or receiver could help him should he come back to the ranks of D-I and eventually try to get into the NFL.
