Kevin Love, Derek Rose and John Wall are just the beginning of a number of one-hit-wonders that streaked across the college basketball landscape. And this madness needs to stop. . .NOW!
The NCAA is making more trouble than they already need right now. These kids see themselves as just passers-by on the college campus to bigger and better things in the NBA. Why would these kids attend class, much less study and do good in these classes? You’re not going to need to know the Pythagorean theriom when you have to go one on one with Kobe.
Not only are the kids going to get in trouble, but the game is going to suffer. When is the last time a player said ‘I’m passing up the opportunity at millions of dollars to get ONE more shot at winning a National Championship’? Never. You have players that are going to be playing for the scouts, not their teammates.
So let the men amongst boys try their hand at the pro game. The more Kwame Brown’s there are in the world the more likely these kids will learn their lesson and go to school for something more than just dorm food, frat parties and hoops.
