[QUOTE="herb, post: 547818, member: 924"] Colleges and the NCAA cannot implement that rule. The unions can though establish the rule as to their membership and it would be ok. I believe that is what has been done in baseball and football, with baseball providing the come out after high school or wait three years, and the NFL simply being not draftable until after three. The rule was certainly implemented for the reasons noted above, but it has hurt college basketball and it has hurt to some degree the NBA as before the NBA was getting players many were familiar with, having seen most for three years in the tournament and knowing who the kids were. These days the NBA probably doesn't need it given all of the social media, but it has not been good at all for the NCAA as there is little continuity. [/QUOTE]
