One OAD guy this this, sorry that Justice and possibly Tyus improved enough to go into the draft their first year, Cal wouldn't know anything about that.
That's kind of a dumb thing to say. All three were top 15 guys last year, with Jones a top 10 guy. Considering there will probably be at least 10 freshmen declaring (if not more), it didn't take that much improvement for them to have the chance to be 1-and-done. By that logic, Calipari worked wonders with Devin Booker, who was well below any of the Duke guys in the rankings and is going to be probably a mid-first rounder. The reality, whether you want to admit it or not, is that these guys were plenty skilled enough for the NBA before they ever got to Duke or UK, then were fortunate enough to be put in a position to show those skills off. Not much development is occurring in that short a period of time.
