USC’s stud wide receiver Nelson Agholor has decided to forgo his final season as a Trojan and will enter the 2015 NFL Draft.
USC junior wide receiver Nelson Agholor has announced that he will make himself eligible for the 2015 NFL Draft. Agholor is the only Trojan to rank among USC’s career Top 8 receivers and Top 7 punt returners. He finished his USC career third on the school’s single-season reception list with 104 catches in 2014 and a school-record four punt returns for touchdowns.
Here is Nelson Agholor’s official statement:
“These past three years at USC have been a blessing, along with a lot of my life. I am very grateful to have had the coaches and staff members of this prestigious university in my life. Because of these men and women, I feel prepared to follow my dreams into the NFL. Thank you to the Trojan Family for allowing me to become one of your own.”
Head coach Steve Sarkisian:
“All of us at USC thank Nelson for all he has done here. He had an outstanding career and will always be a Trojan. We wish him the best and look forward to watching him at the next level.”
The wide receiver draft class for 2015 was already loaded before Agholor declared and him decided to test the NFL waters just added to the star power of the class. I don’t know if this class will be as good as the 2014 class that just shredded the NFL in year one, but it is talented and deep as any class of receivers I have seen.
