Doesn't all have to do with basketball. College allows kids to grow and mature without the pressure and/or the grind. Yeah there's class, but there's also A LOT more free time than in the NBA, where it's your job and you are getting paid to perform.

Jerami also hasn't had the opportunity to be a top option on a team yet. Right now I'd say he's probably the 4th option (CJ, Ennis, Cooney) offensively. He gets a lot of his points on offensive rebounds and putbacks. To me, his game would mature a lot if he were thrust into a C.J. Fair-type role next year where he gets isos called for him and is allowed to create.

In the NBA, he'd be the 9th, 10th or 11th guy on a roster to start off with (IMO). And the only time he'd be getting any plays called for him is on the scout team.

There are two ways to look at it. I think he would be very well served to stay - at this point in the season, and at this point in his development. I don't think he will, but what do I know.
