there is a possible rule change. the change would make a player stay in college for 2 years instead of 1. What do yall think? |

| david stern has been rumored to want to make this the new policy. i believe the current collective bargaining agreement lasts until 2010 or 2011 so it would not take effect until then. but this rule could only help college basketball | |

| Good idea, but 2 and done doesn't have the same ring to it as 1 and done |

| Actually the rule is the player has to be 19 to go into the draft and they might be changing it to 20, so depending on the player they might have to wait 2 years or 1 depending their age. I know the NCAA and the David stern are going to make an anouncement in the next couple of days reguarding this
