It seems you are basing your “correct’ advice primarily if not only on money. There are other things in life and he might just be wanting to move on and get the rest of his life started. Staying in college another year will likely do nothing to increase his pro prospects or his future success in that arena. Nothing wrong with him betting on himself.
I’d love to see Kofi back, but I fully understand why he’d move on. Just because many on here have decided that Kofi is destined to at best play in G League or overseas doesn’t make it inevitable. Not the same situation, but I seem to remember many people on here saying Ayo shouldn’t enter draft because he wasn’t assured being picked in first round. He wasn’t, he went anyway, he wasn’t drafted in first round and his professional career has suffered greatly. Oh wait, the last part didn’t happen. I’m not saying Kofi will have same success, just that what drove Ayo to leave — a belief in himself and wanting to move on to trying to make his dream a reality — is the same thing driving Kofi. Sure the financial aspects play a part, but they may not be number 1 or even 2 for Kofi. Just because you don’t agree with the advice doesn’t mean it is the right advice for him.
