RW points out that had he decided to go pro this year, he would have little competition for a starting spot. He's right. And the whole "let the kid get his degree" stuff is non applicable at this point, because even if he goes back this season, he still wont be graduating for another year after that. Not to mention he can go play pro and get his degree at any point in the future.
Not real good news here IMO.

He isn't a UFA next year if he doesn't sign, he would still have the option of playing his 4th year and then going UFA but he is the Flames property until then and no other team can communicate with him. So it's a ways down the road
So unless he wants to play a 4th year at college, the only team he can sign with is Calgary. If he goes back for his 4th year, that is when the red flags start popping up
