Kiffin Asks Woods To Stay

USC wide receiver Robert Woods said Wednesday that USC coach Lane Kiffin asked him to return for his senior season during a meeting to his discuss his future.

“Yes, he did (ask me to come back),” Woods said. “I told him I wasn’t sure yet.”

Woods picked up paperwork to send to the NFL for a draft evaluation but is waiting for a copy of his transcripts before he sends it to the league.

“I still have to fill everything out,” Woods said. “The meeting (with Kiffin) went well.”

Woods previously said he would seriously consider turning pro if he knew he would be selected in the first round of the NFL draft.

  1. Should go if he is in the first or second round because USC will be a five or six loss team, which isn’t going to help his draft stock.

  2. Lanie ” Robert, please stay and be a decoy for Marquis, we’re going to try and get him the Heisman next year and you’ll be vital in that attempt. You’ll get some balls thrown your way, and your draft stock will rise just be a good Trojan and come back ”

    Woods ” F^& YOU A$%^&* !! “

  3. Why should robert go thru what he did this season… be ignored on the field. Kiffin is trying to set things up that make him look good and not necessarily about the best interests of Robert Woods. Kiffin is a snake.

  4. I’m thinking his stock really fell this year and I’m guessing he’s late 2nd maybe 3rd round. As such, I’m guessing he’s staying.

  5. Listening and trusting a coach who is job is on the hot seat. .hmm. Staying around another year to compete with Marquis Lee who will be
    seeking to keep his stock high and the emerging Nelson Agholor is
    stupid. Just think Barkley and go get paid.

  6. To be honest, i think he will have a better year next year – teams will lean on Lee, and hopefully someone will call plays that notice woods in single coverage. Also, i have a sneaking feeling his ankle wasn’t actually 100%. But if anyone, he’s earned the right to leave if he wants.

  7. His ankle is f#cked up. And playing a full season on it did not exactly aid his recovery.

    He needs to make a decision based on the health of his ankle. If he can recover via rest, therapy, or surgery in time for the combines be should leave no doubt. If cannot heal in time for the combine, maybe even the 2013 NFL season, he should stay.

    Think he should stay regardless? Just ask McDonna or Barkley how that worked out for them. He’s a great kid, and I hope he makes the obvious choice.

  8. R. WOODS: If you are reading this, thank you for your services but, please, lawd, PLEASE look for the nearest door and RUN! Don’t let L. Kiffin bamboozle you and drag you down with the rest of the team.
    Best of luck in the NFL.

    • “bamboozle”…..wasn’t that made famous by a cartoon, at least that’s what my daughter said….and the beat goes on!

    • I can appreciate your use of humor with your comment, Julio, but I agree with you that Woods should take off and never look back. It’s really not worth it for him.

      • This is the last fucking time I’m telling y’all …whoever broke into my email get out! I hate sports fuck off I’m reporting it to gmail.
