In what can’t be summarized as a surprise, Georgia head football coach Mark Richt indicated on Monday that star running back Todd Gurley will forgo his senior season and enter the 2015 NFL Draft.
Mark Richt on radio just about says RB Todd Gurley entering NFL draft: "I believe he'll still be a very high draft pick in this draft."

Gurley tore his ACL in his return from a suspension back in mid-November against the Auburn Tigers. It had been expected for some time that he would enter the upcoming NFL draft.
And while the ACL injury is a significant step back for Gurley, he’s still expected to be a top-round pick.
Gurley ends his Georgia career with 3,900 total yards and 42 touchdowns in 30 games.
