IIRC, the rule was instituted because the owners and GMs complained about too many players coming out straight out of high school and washing out.

This guy sounds like he has the intelligence level of a 3rd grader.

Which is actually above average in the NBA.

Looking at it now, I don't even know what I learned financially or just being a person at LSU. I think I've learned a lot more with this last year being in Philly and being a pro, than I did at LSU.
Yes, Ben you are required to actually go to class. The guy has as much character as my shoe.

And that's the difference between coaches like Johnny Jones and John Calipari. Hate all you want, but he knows he's only going to have those guys a year but at least tries to give them a lesson in how to handle themselves in the pros.

And that's why they almost always come back to represent the University too.

Simmons and team straight quit playing basketball after we beat their arse so badly. Not surprising that he’s of questionable character.

Kyrie Irving went to Duke for a year and thinks Earth is flat. So go figure.

Ask Johnny Football what he learned at College Station. And he was there more than 1 year.
