But that was my point ... that you don't just jump as soon as you start appearing in the mocks. It depends. And the jury's out on Allen (he's projected first round by some). I used to think that every kid should get a college degree -- (i have this thing about being educated). But in recent years, it's clear that there are kids who are talented enough to play in the NBA and sometimes the time is right. In that case, by all means, follow Captain's advice and go. College can wait.

For others - and I think it's the majority - waiting usually doesn't hurt if it's a healthy college situation (unlike Duhk or UK when you're a prospect but don't play). Justin Jackson could have jumped after his sophomore year. He did very well waiting. Grant left way to early. Same applies to him. There are other examples of players staying in school at Nova, UNC and other schools and still getting drafted. Ennis probably left at his apogee. Tyus ... well he has a decision. But I'm not the only one suggesting that he might make more by distinguishing himself next year in college with a longer NCAA run and better efficiency.
