    Campbell to skip senior year

    'Canes defensive end likely high pick in '08 NFL draft

    Posted: Thursday January 3, 2008 7:15PM; Updated: Thursday January 3, 2008 7:15PM

    CORAL GABLES, Fla. (AP) -- Finally
    confirming what had been expected for weeks, Miami defensive end Calais
    Campbell said Thursday that he's skipping his senior season and
    entering the NFL draft. Campbell is one of two Miami players to
    leave early so far: safety Kenny Phillips also won't be back for his
    final year of eligibility with the Hurricanes in 2008. Both are
    projected to be first-round selections on most mock NFL draft boards.







    Campbell graduated from Miami last month with a degree in sociology.
    He spent several weeks trying to decide if he really wanted to leave, but
    ultimately, the potential NFL riches were simply too much to ignore. "It
    was a hard decision," Campbell said in a statement released by the
    university. "But it's time for me to take the next step in my football
    career and I look forward to the challenges of the next level." Miami
    has had at least one player chosen in the first round of 13 straight
    drafts, a record, and the Hurricanes have sent 47 first-rounders into
    the draft since 1984 -- by far the most of any school. The
    6-foot-8, 280-pound Campbell had six sacks this season for the
    Hurricanes, who finished 5-7 and missed a bowl game for the first time
    since 1997. For his career, he finished with 169 tackles, 381/2
    tackles for loss, 19 sacks and six forced fumbles. As a sophomore, he
    recorded at least one sack in seven straight games, the second-longest
    streak in Miami history. Miami coach Randy Shannon was not
    available for comment, although Campbell said Shannon was "very
    supportive and very happy that I received my degree, since that's what
    he's all about." "I'll miss the University of Miami and my
    teammates," Campbell said. "I love it here. I'm a die-hard Canes fan
    and I bleed orange and green. I will always be part of 'The U."'

    2008 NFL Draft Good Decision: Miami Safety Kenny Phillips Leaves Early


    Posted Jan 3rd 2008 6:22PM by Michael David Smith
    Filed under: NFL DraftA look at the 2007 junior class as players decide whether to enter the 2008 NFL draft.

    University of Miami safety Kenny Phillips was
    the first junior in 2007 to say publicly that he would skip his senior
    season to declare for the 2008 NFL draft. Most players, even the ones
    who have already decided they're turning pro, wait until late December
    or early January to announce their intentions. But Phillips has been
    saying for several weeks that he's ready for the NFL.

    And he's
    right: He is ready. Although the 6-foot-2, 210-pound Phillips is a
    little on the skinny side and could stand to get a little tougher
    against the run, there's little doubt that he'll be a first-round draft
    pick. He's got good instincts in coverage and good quickness at getting
    to the ball.

    Phillips has been compared to a couple of other
    recent first-round Miami safeties, Sean Taylor and Ed Reed. I'm
    skeptical that he'll achieve that level of greatness in the NFL, but
    he'll be awfully good. He didn't need another year of college football
    to prove that.


    KP second round i think...
    WELL HE BETTER BE!!!
    if not first... i doubt first round though
    unless he does beastly in combine and what not
