[QUOTE="YlJacket, post: 404110, member: 2784"] The key point in Red's post is that the teams are pushing back on Silver's desire to do away with the one and done for exactly the reason they are worried about $5m mistakes. Doesn't mean they won't make mistakes even with a year in college but they believe they will make less mistakes - and with that they can override the Commish's desire to change the rule. Add in that teams in reality don't want to have to start going to AAU tourneys to scout players when they now have college games with high end film systems that they can use to do their assessments rather than POS gyms scattered all over hell's half acre with no real film system for backup. Beyond the extra year of training, competition and learning to live away from home - that is a huge problem/imposition/PIA for the GMs and scouts to have to deal with to get their assessments done on these guys. They have already been stretched to have to go to Europe and other overseas locations to scout and IMHO they are saying they don't want to add AAU gyms. My own opinion - while Silver is pointing to the next CBA as a place for change, I don't think the players union is the real impediment here. They will want their pound of flesh in any negotiation but I think the teams themselves are the big impediment - and that means it may well not get changed in a CBA or anywhere. They like it the way it is and likely think the implications to the college game don't affect or concern them. [/QUOTE]
