Yes.

Also, even if Mal genuinely enjoyed his year on campus and meant every good word he said about life as an SU player and student sincerely,  he might A. not be academically inclined at this point in his life, so struggled to keep his grades up even if he liked the classes or B. even if he got EXCELLENT grades and plans to pursue his bachelor's online if possible while a pro, and not wait till his career ends to get it, the fact that as a NCAA scholarship player, he had to earn X number of credits a semester (12?), with a GPA of 2.0 I would think to stay eligible, AND wake up most mornings during the season around 5 to practice before class, eat, go to class, eat, more class, rest and/or study, eat, practice, eat, study/write a paper/ chill a little, eat then sleep before doing it again. Not counting game days. Not counting road trips. And I may be wrong but I think basketball is the only NCAA sport that is played for the better part of BOTH semesters, no?

Mal may just have been so freaking exhausted that the NBA lifestyle looks restful by comparison.
