[QUOTE="Serious Late, post: 1402364, member: 5520"] With regard to the 1-n-done vs. Straight from high school draft policy affecting NCAA hoops, I am skeptical that will have a major impact. We have been down both roads before, with limited overall negative consequences. Sure, seeing KG, Kobe, Shauny, etc. in college would have been fun, but I don't believe their not attending had a big effect on the popularity of CBB. I could be wrong, though. That said, the far more interesting topic I am following is the potential expansion/evolution of the G-league. You combine straight from high school eligibility with a proper minor league system and there lies the potential to legitimately threaten college hoops as a minors to the NBA. It would take a big commitment from the NBA and I don't believe a one-off entrepreneurial operation like Lavar Ball's would succeed, but if you expanded the draft substantially and added another tier to the G-League... that could hurt. There is chatter around that topic. [/QUOTE]
