 NEW ORLEANS (AP) - Tom Zbikowski might want to consider a boxing career. Jeff Samardzija could trade his shoulder pads for a bat and glove. JaMarcus Russell has a chance to be one of the top players taken in the NFL draft — or he could go into next season as a leading contender for the Heisman Trophy. Decisions, decisions.
After Wednesday night's Sugar Bowl, several players from both LSU and Notre Dame will have to take a good, hard look at their future plans. It was hard for players such as Tigers defensive tackle Glenn Dorsey to stay focused on the game when they'll soon be deciding, or at least announcing, whether they'll go pro.
"People are always asking me about it," said Dorsey, a 299-pound junior who ranked third in tackles on one of the nation's top defensive teams despite constant double-teaming. "I guess it's a good problem to have. I can't say I'm complaining about it. But you try to stay focused on the task at hand."
