Really could've used one of the 4 draftees staying (I'm counting Blaze in that but not Hendrick....that guy was never coming to campus).

    Also, FWIW, I don't think Blaze Jordan is coming to State but I can't see a scenario where I send my 17 year old
    son to A ball for anything less that $4M. I think I saw where the slot for his draft spot was like $667K. That's pretty good money but after taxes, paying agents etc it's not what I would consider life changing. So, if he goes at slot, he will get $67k this year and the $300k each of the next two years. That's not a bad living but is that really in his best interest? It's going to be a huge adjustment athletically, and personally....
    Goodness, $4 mil?

    I don't believe you. I believe you'd do it for $2mil
    CAN'T PUT A SADDLE ON A MUSTANG

    Quit Your Bi$&$&?!, He's Not Going to Run the Ball More

    You're probably right...but you see my point...it would have to life changing money to let my son make that leap at such a young age.
