New Age requirement is 19 aka 1 and done :confused:

At least there is some age requirement. :undecided

[Vlyrock]

That's good...although 19 doesn't stop a lot of people.

Is that 19 at the time of the draft or the start of the season?

[Loftin]

It got to the point where I didn't care if the age limit was 30 or 13, I just didn't want them to cancel the season while my Rockets are on the rise.

[Texas Aggie 07]

I believe it is by draft day. This probably won't stop all that many players from entering the draft. The one's that aren't going to college are probably a year behind anyways

[Vlyrock]

It's also good for the underclassmen who declared and stayed in the draft this year.

It would suck for AW to go in the top 13 then have to miss half the season not getting paid why they argued about stuff....

Now do you think martellous will concentrate on basketball and leave after his freshman year if he does good?

I think some parents of good ballers will hold their kids back a year

[AggieWill]

I honestly don't care.

Just watching the Pistons beat down the Spurs is enough for me.

[Vlyrock]

Then prepare for a tough night tonight Will.

I don't think Martellus will be NBA ready until his junior year (if he's good at all). AW was awesome this year for us, and there were still some people saying he wouldn't do well in the draft. I'm not sure, but I think Bennett wouldn't be able to match AW and wouldn't go as highly or be as successful. I don't see him declaring for anything until after his Jr. year (and by then, it'll be football)...

Remember Vly, it's potential, not what you've done. Marvin Williams didn't do much, but he has alot of potential
