...so be prepared for another 365 days of man-crushes from Jay Bilas and Andy Katz.

Lawson and Ellington are declaring for the draft but not hiring agents so they can come back if they want.

Very well could be true. Hansbrough doesn't need the money. Daddy's a surgeon.

This is the first difference - have seen between Hansbrough and Chris Mihm. Even though Chris comes from big money he chose to come out after his junior season.

I would expect both players to have similar careers professionally barring some surprising advances in Tyler's game.

tyler who????


I'm kidding!!

[JDUB]

the only thing with tyler is i don't see his stock improving in the draft with another year. he is what he is, it isn't going to change with another year. I guess he just wants to graduate

I think he wants the degree, a chance at a championship, and don't forget all the records he will hold after next year. He would probably deny that is a factor, but I don't buy it when athletes say they don't think about records. It's a cliche right up there with the Bull Durham list.

I think HANS BLOW realizes the longer he stays in college the easier life on the court will be for him. This kid is a heck of a college player and it's mostly because of his relentless hustle and effort. He has hardly any athleticism at all and I just have a very hard time seeing him have much of an NBA career at all. I don't think he'll ever start or be an All-Star.
He'll be just another example of guys who have amazing college careers and struggle in the NBA.

Fixed it for you.

If Lawson, Ellington and Green are ALL gone Hansbrough will be hard pressed to make it back to the Final Four let alone win a national title.

I believe at least 2 of those 3 will not stay in the draft. But, even if they do, Carolina has a nice class of recruits coming in. National title? I don't see that, but I wouldn't be surprised at another Final Four, although I don't expect it....probably more like an Elite Eight.
