I thought players could already dabble w/ the draft and return to college play if they wanted to. Has this whole FBI investigation even ended yet? Certainly doesn't seem like UNC has missed a beat.
And now these players can have 'agents'? 'Grandpa' Al Lewis (a la Munsters) is rolling over in his grave.
All bureaucracies tend to be very adept at:
Or, perhaps, it would be more beneficial to just kick the NCAA’s Chief Bloviator square in the nuts a couple hundred times.
At least that would provide a beneficial cardio workout.
So where is the part about having to actually go to class in a real major? How many 6' 9" guys that speak Swahili do we need in the workforce? I'm with Art on this one ... just make each CBB program an NBA minor league team, pay the players, no class requirements and stop the charade. Next up ... CFB.
Does this mean Tony Carr can come back next season?
Listened to Calipari last night say that once a player decides to get an agent or enter the draft, he will likely make an additional scholarship offer. Therefore, they may not have an available scholarship left to give to the undrafted player desiring to return. What happens then?
What about freshman and sophomore NCAA football players? Why cant they go pro as well??
Sounds like a mess. Wouldn’t the undrafted player have to sit out a year if he were to transfer?The undrafted player transfers.
Becoming more and more obvious that the Idiots of Indianapolis didn't give this a whole lot of thought

I think Calipari is being a bit deceptive. I guarantee that if he has an NBA caliber played who wants to explore his options and later decides to stay in school, he will move mountains including withdrawing an offer to an unknown to keep the original player.
I wonder what the states think about this new rule that HS players can have a relationship with agents.Elite prospects will now be allowed to have official relationships with agents. This applies to high schoolers and college athletes alike. USA Basketball, in conjunction with the NCAA, will be tasked with identifying which prospects in a given class are "elite." In regard to high school athletes, however, the rules will not go into effect until the NBA changes its current age-limit rule.

No doubt. I realize the NCAA thinks it has all the powers of a real government but it doesn't. It's still bound by real laws like this one.I wonder what the states think about this new rule that HS players can have a relationship with agents.

Law changes or rule changes? From what I read they need the NBA and the NBPA to change the rules in the CBA to allow players to be drafted after they complete high school.The NCAA fully disclaimed at the agent stuff required law changes first.
