Maurice Clarett Ruling

With yesterday's court ruling, Maurice Clarett (and Larry Fitzgerald) is eligible for the NFL draft. The court found the NFL in violation of anti-trust laws in that it completely barred any player recently removed from High School the chance to apply his trade in return for just compensation.

What effect, if any, will this have on college football? If top recruits go straight to the NFL, all of college football suffers. If those recruits go to school for a year or two to beef up, the team sees no real benefit because team dynamic is never created and the player has basically used the team as a free weight room and instruction class.
