MOD EDIT: Per Peppers' own Twitter, don't send him to the pros just yet - he has not decided to go as of this moment. - LSA

Funny how I haven't made any decisions on my future. This is a complete false report. https://t.co/r3t4QV3DSe

Building up hype for the inevitable Players' Tribune article, it seems.

Congratulations to Jabrill for earning this position in the draft, and I can't wait to see him line up again. But, is anyone else a little annoyed that this Darren Heitner stole the announcement from Jabrill? This was obviously a tough and emotional process for him, and it seems to have resigned itself to the competitive benefits of a lawyer/journalist, especially in being based in South Florida and having no relationship with Jabrill's family or UofM.
CORRECTION: Well, of course. Will I ever learn the difference between cynicism and rationality?

It seems clear that the "right" move is for him to go pro. But I sure am going to miss him at Michigan. I have enjoyed watching him so much. It was huge for him to pick Michigan in the first place. It was huge for him to stay with that pick when things were going sideways. And he has been a pure joy these last two seasons. One of my all-time favorites, and that list goes back a lot of years.

Best of luck wherever he lands. It was fun watching him play.
