Move to a modified baseball model and improve it:

- can go pro out of HS
- can enter the draft out of HS, but still go to college. If you go through the process and don't like what you hear, you can go to college. I doubt this would ever actually happen, as kids are either all in or not ready.
- if you elect to go to college, you need to complete two years before being draft eligible again
- after your sophomore year, you can be drafted, but also return to school if you don't like your draft position. I believe this used to be the rule. I remember Voshon Lenard returning to Minnesota after being drafted in the 90's. Of course, kids will have to avoid agents to do this, so that'll be tough.
- Maybe allow contact with agents, or even be able to receive loans from an agent to be paid back once signing a pro deal, even if they go back to school for the year?
- more two way contracts with the G-League

Maybe this won't work because any fringe draftee that thinks 1 year in college is all they need may decide going pro right out of HS is the right move. Then possibly we'll have more Lenny Cooke, Jackie Butler and Robert Swifts.
