I thought this was a good post but I have few comments.  It's not that people who are fans of CBB "think we know what is best for the player".   What most people are frustrated about has nothing to do with an individual player.   What most people are frustrated about is how the 1-and-done change to CBB has changed CBB.   And many people have the opinion that 1-and-done has not been a positive thing for CBB.   Personally, I have no problem with players going from HS to the D-League.   My preference would be if a player decides to go to college that they play for at least 2 years so the quality of CBB is preserved.

I would also like to see the NCAA get rid of restrictions around players entering the draft and then deciding to return to CBB to complete their eligibility.   Why have these NCAA rules?  Say a player spends a year or two in the NBA why not allow them to return to college to complete their 2 or 3 years of eligibility?

I would also like to see players who participate in the NCAA tournament get an additional stipend payment just like the colleges get a share of the tournament money.  CBB is big business.  I would like to see the players get some compensation.

The bottom line is all I care about is the quality of CBB more than just any one player.  And I would also like to see players have more options and get some rewards for their efforts and talents.   I don't understand why people have such strong opinions about keeping the status quo.   I respect the other opinions on this subject but I just can't agree with them if it's at the expense of the quality of CBB.
