Rolando McClain, the 2009 Butkus Award winning linebacker at Alabama, held a press conference today and announced his intentions to enter the NFL Draft.
Ronaldo McClain's decision isn't a huge surprise, especially with Alabama winning the BCS title and his statement at the press conference in Tuscaloosa reflected that: "I'm going to leave the university pretty satisfied with what I've done here," McClain said.
McClain was the primary signal caller for the Tide's championship defense, he recorded 105 tackles and is considered the consensus No.1 overall linebacker in this draft class, as well as a sure-fire first round draft pick.
Currently, Ronaldo McClain is listed 10th best player on Mel Kiper's big board (1st overall linebacker, natch) and the seventh best overall player on Scouts, Inc's board.
