I must say players leaving after 3 years stinks. I always thought Stanford was special. Players leaving LSU or Alabama after 3 years sort of made sense, they might not be great students and struggled to stay eligible and/or its just easy to go back pay cheap in-state tuition and finish their kinesiology degree. But when it came to Stanford a degree was worth any risk of playing college football for another year

As long as they come back and get their degree I'm good with it.  In my day, Garin Veris was drafted by the 49ers before he graduated.  He came back for two consecutive spring quarters to finish his degree.  Good for him - I hope Hooper does the same.
