That's the key question and if you could guarantee that coming back meant that much of an increase, then he'd be correct, but there is not that guarantee.

Yep that is the problem, but that is where he lays the blame on the agents because they do everything in their power to convince these kids they are not going to make the league mins, and that is exactly what usually happens. What they never do he says is, show them what the differences could be if they did stay in school and have confidence in their ability to move up the draft board next year. Again he states the difference is if they are a mid rounder this year, moving up to be top 1, 2 or 3 rounds is huge in pay is it worth the risk. He believes so but he also states that every player is player specific obviously.
