Oregon Quarterback Marcus Mariota has announced he will return for his junior season. The 20-year old had been projected as a probable top-five draft pick in the NFL, but opted to come back, giving him another shot at a possible Heisman Trophy… and a degree. He’ll be joined by Center Hroniss Grasu (huh-RO-nuss GRASS-oo) who also announced he would forego the NFL Draft and return for the Ducks 2014 season.
