There's some stuff floating around on Twitter that if he doesn't like what he hears during the lead up to the draft that he might want to return. As of now he still hasn't signed with an agent. Personally I would say no thanks, but I don't get paid to make those decisions. It could be something to keep an eye on in the near future.

That is a very tricky situation.
First, the positive view. If he hasn’t signed with an agent or anything like that, then technically, he merely “opted out†for the last few games of the season. A lot of players did that last year. The fact that he is not getting a lot of encouraging feedback is not the least bit surprising. His college career was only a handful of games with very mixed results. Yes, he had a lot of INTs, but he got burned a lot as well. So, a decision to come back seems both open and plausible.
But then, the negative. He did quit on the team and was an undisciplined head case for most of his time with UK. In fact, off the top of my head, I cannot think of a single player in my 20 years as a UK fan who behaved more poorly than Joseph. Has he learned his lesson? Has he matured any? He is a talented player at a position of need, but how would the team feel about his return? And, how would, Stoops and the staff feel about it?
This could become interesting. -
Stoops addressed it today and said there's "No chance" that Joseph returns. Also said that he's certain Weaver is back. Apparently Weaver's family is originally from Florida and he's visiting some currently. He put up an instagram post that said something about how he's never leaving and people took it as he's transferring to Miami.Comment
