Stan's brother Jeff was on the radio last week saying college players should be drafted too. Eliminate the choice and have them go where selected. His theory was it eliminates the shady recruiting dealings he also recognized it would never happen.
In Canada we have a draft model for Junior Hockey, where 15 and 16 year olds are told where they have to go. So they have to move, and make moves that may not be best for their development all in the name of parity. Fans are more concerned about keeping the league fair then the well being of a 16 year old.
Some argue with me that the kid made the choice to go ... but he had no other alternative choice for the next few years until the US College route. Just because the kid made a choice to enter the league voluntarily, (or a basketball player voluntarily chose to enter the NCAA), doesn't mean we can't come up with a fairer model for them.
