Default Re: Ask a College Basketball Coach

[ QUOTE ]
Do you agree that a player can ready for the pros before he completes 4 years of college? And if you know that while recruiting him how do rationalize a decision to recruit him knowing he may not stay long enough to take the program to a higher level? Does coaches flighty loyalty negate all that with a "Today and now" attitude?

I'm not a college coach like the OP, but the answer to this is so subjective. Was LeBron ready for the pros without playing in college? Of course. How about Kwame Brown, was he ready? The answer to that is probably no. Kwame Brown, to date has made 33 million dollars. Is it possible to say someone wasn't ready for the NBA when they made more money in 6 years than 99.9% of people do in their whole lifetime?
