This is something that the NCAA should fear. I have the feeling that more and more players, regardless of right or wrong, are going to start doing this to get a quick paycheck.

I said the same thing last year and no one really saw it being a problem in the future. But I'm with you.

This seems like a risky venture. How many top level Euro clubs are going to take a guy for one year, and if they do, how much run will he get?

I know the potential is there for more development, plus a paycheck. But the realities around it and the difficult transition would make me hesitant.

Besides, he was going to SMU to be coached by Larry Brown. He can't be making that much more money overseas, and the coaching likely won't be as good.

Again, the same was said after Brandon Jennings did it, but it didn't start an exodus.

Yes. Especially if they go ahead with the 2 year college rule.
