I wonder how many idiots dont realize they have it on 3 channels. 1 for Wisc coverage, 1 for Kentucky, and 1 thats unbiased.
How many McD's are on Kentucky? How many McD's are on Wisconsin? The NCAA should change the rules- any Hs player that wants to go to the NBA should be allowed, but if you decide to go to college then you have to stay at least 3 yrs. ( same as college baseball)
The rule should be that they can go to the NBA anytime they want to. Out of high school, after one year of college, after two years of college...whenever. That's what any other college student would do if they found their dream job prior to graduating. Why should it be different for basketball players?
The fact that the NBA tells a kid like Karl-Anthony Towns that he has to wait until after he's a year out of high school to play in their league is ridiculous. What's he supposed to do, sit around the house? What Calipari does for these kids is a good thing. There's nothing negative about it.

I agree that any player has the right to declare for the NBA, but many give up their chance and have nothing to fall back on because of bad advisors. I used to use the tennis where kids can turn pro, but this is very different. It's all about the hangers on and the advisors who ruin kids by propping them up as better than they are, to make it to the NBA. I think the rule should be 2 years in the NCAA before declaring for the NBA. T
That said, what happened to the rule that every school is tracked on graduation rates and that the schools will be penalized when players who start at a school, don't graduate in 5 years? If a player leaves early, he's still counted on the schools graduation rates. Wasn't their talk of losing scholarships if the graduation rates weren't met? Has Calipari's graduation rate been above 5% at Kentucky? That's the way to stop his NBA development league team disguised as a student athlete at UK.
He should be down to about 7 scholarships available in my opinion for running the school the way he does.
