In theory yes, but you could argue those guys who should be in the NBA immediately now will be and the elite of the elite no longer will make it to college to "make that immediate difference".
To me, there's a definite difference in the Top 5-10 guys then the ones from there in the freshmen class.
I do agree with that - but as Belle said above, I think that Kentucky's best teams have been the ones that had experienced very good but not one-an-done quality players (with some one-and-dones sprinkled in).
It's just kind of going to be a different dynamic. Like biggio said above, it isn't as if the One-and-Done programs (Kentucky, Duke mainly) have been dominating college basketball in terms of titles lately anyway. So I don't think it'll be a huge change.

I thought the D League and Euro leagues were the outlet for bball players not wanting to go to College and continue playing/training while earning dough?

It is, but these guys have parents that want them to go to college. Plus it looks much better and they get much more exposure that way.

Yes
Either out of high school or after three years.
The great ones can go. The others can develop and be ready after they are Juniors.
One and done is horrible.
