The scouts don’t know it was misinformation so teams sought out more information. USF has not answered back many requests from NFL teams over the last few months, not just about Cronk but Barnett as well.
This has left many teams not even signing him let alone drafting because of all uncertainty about the player and the season coming up.
Sad part is once he is brought in and makes a team, USF will promote that as if they had something to do with it but when the player needed the school there was no love then. Gotta love a second rate football program.
