Message: [QUOTE="cohenzone, post: 3530965, member: 504"] Drummond left after one season. UConn was 20-14, nothing special. Obviously when a star player plays well regularly it’s usually good for the team. It also requires other players to play well. But I’m pretty sure NBA scouts aren’t all that interested in the college team record of their draft choices. As I said, players like Bouk are fun to watch, but I’m more interested in how the program does. Three years to root for a kid gives the program a better chance, especially if a few other high level players come in after them while they are there. . UConn has had few players leave for the draft even after 2 years, including some of our greats with excellent NBA play. But I don’t blame a kid for taking advantage of what the world offers. I’d have left college after a day if someone offered me a few million a year. I’m still waiting, and my freshman year almost predates modern history. [/QUOTE]
