Reader comments: Utah Utes football: U.'s Kruger will enter NFL Draft

I hope you find your way to the top of the NFL just like you did in the NCAA, just don't forget that you still have a home at RES.
BEST OF LUCK!
As an avid BYU fan, I will say it was fun watching you terrorize Alabama; not so much fun seeing you put the heat on Hall. You're one of the best defenders to play for Utah, ever.
Good luck at the next level.
Drive, desire, determination!
It will be nice to see Kruger terrorize the NFL quarterbacks next year instead of Hall.
Keep it up Utes. It would be sweet to play in another bowl game soon. We need revenge after you beat us twice in the last 10 years in bowls.
Good luck, regardless. Should be interesting. Glad the Cougs don't have to worry about him.
....Fact is Smith did what America expected him to do....was Smith the only player with something to lose by playing in the Sugar Bowl?
If we go back, what if Paul Krueger had decided to sit out of the Sugar Bowl too using the "Andre Smith" argument?
....Why didn't Kruger sit out?
In a word...integrity! Krueger loves the game and has learned that he is not bigger than the game! He loves his coaches and teammates and knows that if he didn't play...then his team is not a team anymore.....This kid is an All American everywhere he goes, not just on the football field!
Congrats Krueger! My only regret is that you didn't get to play side by side with your brothers.....would have been something to have witnessed three Kruegers on the front line for the Utes!
GO UTES!!!
The U and Y have about the same number of players in the NFL and most of the Y players are linemen.
I can't think of any Y players currently in the NFL that are "speed" players.
Let's not get side tracked. This is about a terrific person and a fantastic football player moving on to the NFL.
GOOD LUCK PAUL!
Thanks for the memories !
Hey it was good while it lasted though eh?
It's great that you've decided to go pro. Good luck to you. It was great knowing you in the mission field, but just remember to hold on to your beliefs, as it looks like you're doing. You were a great leader to look up to on the mission, and I hope you'll work just as hard and be a great example and leader to those players wherever you end up.
Best of luck to Kruger. We will miss him!!
With Collie and now Kruger, my hope dims. Of course this offers opportunities to some player that I hope steps up....
Not being a homer but this gives BYU even a better chance next season. Assuming by some miracle the Cougs get past OU and FSU, playing Utah and TCU at home could be just enough to take those games. Kruger was the heart of the Utes strength next season. The Utes are rebuilding on offense (although they do return their o-line) and their defense was going to be their strength. TCU loses almost all of their defense. If BYU can gell along the new o-line and the young receivers step up BYU just might ride that home schedule to a MWC championship. But even if they do they are going to need BSU to slip up as well.
