LTrainLG32ParticipantI really think Cory Joesph, Jereme Richmond, and Jordan Williams to name a few could have really benefited from another year or two of College basketball. I understand they want to chase a dream, but is it really worth rushing into the NBA and possibly being out of the league in possibly 2 years? Hopefully they will go to a team where they can be given time to grow and become solid players in the league.

Chilbert arenasParticipantTotally agree with Joseph and Richmond, but Jordan Williams stock isn’t going to increase much more by going back. He’s not going to get any taller or more explosive so why not take advantage for what is known to be a weak draft. I would have liked to see Darius Morris go back to Michigan. I like the kids game and I know he’s probably go in the 1st round but he could use some maturity physically and in the weight room along with refining his offensive game. Also Tristan Thompson. He’s striking while the iron is hot, but he needs a lot of work on his offensive game as well. I would say Tobias Harris and Scotty Hopson but they’re leaving early because of the mess Tennessee is in. Tyler Honeycutt and Malcom Lee would have made UCLA a top 5 team next year in my opinion but I’m on the fence weather they should have returned and if it would have actually helped their stock.

Chilbert arenasParticipantIsaiah Thomas- as someone who lives on the west coast I’m selfish in the fact that Thomas would have made the "Pac-12" more relevant and he probably won’t get drafted anyways so why not contend for a conference title and try to go on a run in tourney?

NiceWithTheRockParticipantalot of guys came out because this years class is considered weak. this past season cory joseph played off the ball alot and with kabongo coming in, that would most likely have been his role again. personally i think he is underrated. i compare him to dj augustin and mario chalmers because he doesnt have the explosive ability of the new generation pgs ( wbrook, rose, wall) but he is skilled and, in my opinion will get the job done.

LTrainLG32ParticipantYeah Cory Joesph is skilled, but the question is when can he produce. I don’t think he will produce a lot this upcoming season, the following year will show us if he has been doing his "homework". Don’t get me wrong he definitely has the skills and he’s a good character. If put in the right situation he can develop into a nice player.
