I have a hard time believing players would choose to return for any other reason than to improve their draft stock, not to play with future recruits or winning championships or anything else.
I would hope some players learn from past LSU players leaving too early. If you're not a top 3 round draft pick, stay in school.

That being said, some athletes have other priorities. To some, completing a degree, winning championships, or just holding on to a place where they're happy is enough to keep them around all four years. But it's important to realize that the dynamic is changing because of the CBA and choices are being made for varying reasons.
