SIDELINES : Ware to Decide Friday on Draft
Heisman Trophy winner Andre Ware says he will announce Friday whether he plans to pass up his senior year at the University of Houston and make himself available to enter the National Football League draft.
Ware told the Houston Chronicle in a story published today that he was close to a decision but had not yet made up his mind.
On Wednesday, the Houston Post, citing unidentified sources, said Ware had decided to seek the NFL’s riches rather than return to the Cougars this season.
“It was kind of funny, because it (the report) was something I didn’t expect,” Ware told the Chronicle. “I plan to make my announcement at a news conference Friday, and it was kind of funny to read about it.”
