Earlier in this thread you mentioned how having the 2nd rounders or undrafted players not helping recruiting.  Almost all of us fans are in agreement that Sanogo and Jackson each had shortcomings as viewed by NBA personnel and staying another year wasn't going to fix those shortcomings.  Better for them to leave and see what they can do professionally.  Another year of college wasn't going to make Jax a better shooting any more than what will be worked on this year by professional player development people in the NBA.  Another year at UConn wasn't going to make Sanogo 3" taller.

However, the Bouk and Hawkins players, who had prototypical NBA size coming out of high school and some unique skills which translate to the NBA, made it out of UConn and in to the lottery in two years.

Castle and Clingan are closer to the Hawkins and Bouk model with the size for their position in the NBA.  Karaban's shooting and BBIQ will get him plenty of looks.
