Message: [QUOTE="Fly Rodder, post: 258501, member: 2133"] As to the topic, I think the baseball model is the way to go - combined with the D league. In baseball, a talent like Gerrit Cole can be drafted out of high school, negotiate with the team that drafts him, and if the money isn't right, he can refuse to sign and go to college for three years and reenter the draft after increasing his value. It works for some players and can also backfire (injuries and failure to reach potential can decrease a player's value), but it gives a lot of control to the player. The one and done rule is silly and doesn't do anything but increase shady recruiting. [/QUOTE]
