I don't think it's just the one and done rule, but yes, CBB has gotten a lot worse.
The initial downturn was during the HS-to-NBA exodus, which was only partially mitigated by the one-and-done rule. Also, the reduction of CBB scholarships from 15-12 basically changed the way teams played, so they relied on a lot of their star players instead of building up quality depth. As a result, I think this has resulted in a downturn in the quality of CBB.
The teams in the 1990s would have destroyed the current teams today.
