So in other words punchy flunked out. He'll be in prison by the time he's 26.
This also explains why a number of these kids leave early.
They actually start making bad grades in tough majors
such as Sports and Leisure Management. So they might
not play in college anyway. School was never their thing.

So save face and declare for the draft.

I'm sorry but after watching eric gordon since he was an freshman in high school, i have to say hes not a stud. He is an above average player but hes very lazy on offense and settles for 30 foot jumpers far too often...

There is no reason for Hansbrough to return to school. He is what he is. He's not going to improve his game any and he's not going to grow any taller. He's a hard working guy with good skills but his effectiveness at the pro level is hard to predict but I don't think another year will make him better.

He can get a degree and prepare for life after his 2 year NBA washout
