Mississippi State QB Dak Prescott: 'I haven't decided on NFL yet'
Contrary to ESPN announcer Brent Musberger, Mississippi State quarterback Dak Prescott has not made a decision on whether to enter the NFL draft.
Musberger casually mentioned during the broadcast that Prescott would return for his senior season with the Bulldogs, causing a mini meltdown on Twitter. But after the game, Prescott said he hasn’t decided yet.
Dak on coming back: "I don't remember making those remarks."

Dak reiterated to me as I left the locker room, he never told Musburger he was coming back.

Eligible underclassmen have until Jan. 15 to declare for the NFL draft. Conventional wisdom is that Prescott is interested in going to the NFL if it seems at all reasonable.
