Completely agree, one and done has destroyed college basketball.

You can't grow and develop a team anymore, at least not with elite players.


I have to agree. It isn't college basketball anymore. It's the D league, especially for schools like UK and Duke.

I used to have fun following favorite players through their 4 years at UK. Now, as talented and personable as they might be like Anthony Davis, Demarcus Cousins and John Wall, they're gone after one year.

I don't follow pro bball, so when they leave UK that's it for me. I can't even name all the greats that have played at UK as OADs without looking them up.

I used to be able to rattle off the players' names without thinking. OAD sucks.

I'm probably the only one but I advocate no rules for pro participation except that once you play pro you can't come back to college sports. Go straight out of college or at any time - even midseason. This is America. The Land of the Free.
