12/20/22 - DT Desjuan Johnson, rSr/2023, Toledo

No one knew for sure how opting out would evolve when former Stanford running back Christian McCaffrey decided he would skip the 2016 Sun Bowl. It's lost to history, but McCaffrey was criticized by the media, fans, players, and coaches for his decision. Six short years later, opting out has not only become commonplace, it's now an accepted part of bowl season. Even the College Football Playoff and Rose Bowl aren't immune. The Boca Raton Bowl is a different story, though. Desjuan Johnson, Dyontae Johnson, and Jamal Hines aren't risking first-round status, but all three said that sitting out Tuesday's game against Liberty is unthinkable.

"If I start something, I'm going to finish it," defensive tackle Desjuan Johnson said. "There's still more out there for me. There's always room to get better and improve your technique. This is a good matchup for me to get better. I'm not where I feel like I need to be." "The love and dedication I have for these guys, I promised these guys that I was going to finish everything out with them," linebacker Dyontae Johnson said. "The bond I have with these guys, I wouldn't leave them like that." "That thought never crossed my mind because I have one more opportunity to play with my guys," said Hines, an edge rusher. "After this game, I won't play another game with Toledo across my chest." Dozens of players have opted out of bowl games this season, with more names almost certainly to be revealed. It's a business decision that is understood and no longer begrudged but still hard to comprehend in a sport as competitive as football and one that espouses brotherhood 365 days a year. - Toledo Blade
