During the decision-making process, Henderson has been forced to grow up.
The pestering from agents continued through the summer, when Henderson fielded as many as 15 calls a week. He considered changing his cellphone number but reconsidered when he realized the trouble of giving out a new number to friends.

"It's just so weird that it's so close," Henderson said. "You always talk about how you want to make it to the pros. You always talk about how you want to play football for a living. For it to be actually as close as it is, it's almost frightening to be right there to where you can almost reach out and grab it. But yet, there's still so much in between."
