Guess LQA needs to assess a few things...

Can he make more $ at SU or in the NFL?
As likely a late rounder, or UFA most likely there is more $ to be had at SU.

Can he improve his draft stock by staying?..

As the 39th rated rusher this season, clearly there is a LOT of room for improvement.  Not sure how much the catching skills or the all purpose yards factor in.. Probably more like a tie breaker. Not an expert.  Just another person w opinions.

Seems both decisions would be influenced by McCords future.

If McCord goes, there is more NIL bag for LQA, perhaps.  Also, the O would undeniably be centered around him.

If McCord stays, you can perhaps sell to LQA dreams of a larger stage. Starting the season in the top 20, & perhaps staying in it if we pull off a .500 record against our best opponents.  This could put both McCord & LQA in a higher draft spot.

Another factor could be the OL. Honestly,  they weren't that great. There weren't a lot of holes. Got pushed around by many teams. So, does LQA place his future in them? If he senses improvement there, perhaps he stays.

Heck, even as the 39th rated rusher, LQA is only 400 yards from being a top 10 rusher. He could get there w 4-6 more carries a game.

Should be interesting.  Feels 50 50 to me
