That would be absolutely amazing if McCord is granted another year. With all these kids getting 7th and 8th years i'm sure giving him a 5th year is possible. Hypothetically, if he some how does it could be in Kyle's best interest to return. He's not a guarantee to make an active roster. If he hangs on and makes PS he only makes $225k/yr for the season. He could go the safe route and make more than that with NIL. That way he guarantees himself to make more money, goes into next year as a possible pre season all-american and heisman candidate and a chance to improve his draft stock even more now that he's fully on the radar. Just look as far as Cam Ward. He easily could have went pro last year. This is all very wishful thinking and i'm not going to hold my breathe but if he's given the opportunity to at least have that as a decision there would be a fighting chance.
