I don't either, at least not in the 1st round, but it seems his mind is made up.

The new rules have made it pretty clear he doesn't have his mind made all the way up. If he was heading over seas if he isn't drafted he would have for gone his senior year and accepted the $ from an agent already. At least that is what logic says

While the statement in the Snapchat make it seem like he is gone, right now is a good time for college students to pack things up that aren't crucial. There are only two weeks left and the more you take home now the easier it is to leave.

Wow, did he just stop going to classes too? Seems like you would want to wrap those credit up should the ultra competitive pro basketball thing doesn’t work out.

These guys don’t think about life after basketball.

It’s sad but it is what it is.

When I left college I had forgotten some stuff. However a couple weeks later I returned to get it, and your wrong............I checked the sink the shower and all.........my degree was gone. I promise if you leave your deodorant or even soap behind someone will take it.

Bone b gone. If he doesn't get the NBA draft, he'll go to Europe and then come back. No interest in school...not for everybody.

The speed he had while possessing the basketball is not something that can be replaced. At times, I thought we underutilized his speed offensively and his ability to blow past defenders at the half court and three point line going towards the basket. I know we wanted to run the offense through Grant, but if Bone made a point to drive the ball towards the goal from the top of the key. Seems like the opposing guard would almost be forced to foul him every time to keep him from penetrating down low for a layup or having an opposing post player try to pick him up near the goal without fouling. At worse there should be a kick out available to an open teammate after the defense sucks in to help defend against his drive. I'm not a coach and played very little basketball growing up so some of y'all may disagree but his speed was special and couldn't be matched consistently by anyone I saw us play this year. I think losing him for next year will hurt us as much or more than anyone we will or could lose.

He needs major work on his shot and defense. It seems he rarely picked up the best guard on defense.

Bruin fwiw VQ is reporting the same thing about immediately eligible, saying if you aren’t drafted and your school has filled your spot you’re immediately eligible to go elsewhere.

I’m wondering if this creates some sort of late free agency frenzy almost like the grad transfers, schools lobbying for guys not drafted to withdraw and come to their school.

I could see that being a rule and that's why I asked if it was specially for guys that declared If there isn't a rule specific for that then they are wrong. The op never answered so who knows

It is very flat, and will only get flatter from 3 feet further back.

Ok thanks for sharing. I hadn't noticed but it makes sense and will definitely pay closer attention to that in the future.
Wasnt Scotty Hopson just the opposite? I think I recall between his freshman and sophomore season they worked on trying to take some of the arch out of his shot. In your opinion, what problems tend to arise by consistently having to much arch in a shot?
