Exactly what everyone said would happen immediately after the game. Test the waters... get feedback... Improve stock next year.
I figured he would. Glad he will take the correct route and not hire an agent
Been so long since we had a player flirt with the draft... what percentage of declare but no agent return to school?
I don’t think he’ll go 1st round. Do y’all?
Good to go & get NBA feedback. I'd encourage Holman & Q to do the same.
Rules are way different then they used to be. I expect he gets feedback on what he needs to do to get to the first round next year and comes back for his junior season. When they hire an agent, they gone.Quote:

Hopefully he has better advisers than Dee Bost did....
Different rules. Not the same situation at all.Quote:

It's the truth though. We can't continue to get left out in the cold here. If the 4* PG wants in we need to take him.Quote:

I bet Nick and Q also gontjr same route just to see what kind of grade they will get .
This is exactly what happened and he had to sit out like 10-12 games cause of it. I believe the deadline has been pushed back since then though so basically the player has no excuse now to miss the deadline (not like they had an excuse before but they REALLY don't have one now).Quote:

Of course he also has plenty of 5* just waiting to sign up so it's not exactly difficult for him. We lose Peters it's going to really hurt with only Nick as our PG on the team. We lose both we'll be devastated. Not trying to add panic here. Sorry.Quote:

There’s a big difference between what one and dones do and what Peters is doing. They changed the rules so A) you can actually go through the pre-draft camp and meet with individual teams to be evaluated, and B) they extended the deadline to remove yourself from the draft until after these things take place so you can have an accurate account of what you need to improve on to get drafted the next year. Look at Peters tweet. He’s entering the draft so his skills can be evaluated. This is so he knows what to work on next year to be a First Round pick in 2019. There’s about I’d say a 5% chance he’s staying in and the only reason he would is because some team guaranteed he’d be taken in the first round. In that case, he should go. I’m sure Howland encouraged him to get evaluated. There is only upside with that.Quote:

I expect both he and Nick W will be gone after next year and both will be first round picks. Depending on what impact Perry has, he could be a one and done or at most a two year guy. In the 2019 and 2020 drafts, we could have at least three taken in the first round and one of those three a lottery selection (Perry). Pretty good if you ask me.Quote:

2 first rounds picks should equate to a monstrous year..Quote:
