Message: [QUOTE="QDOG5, post: 3922787, member: 6764"] There is no working agreement between the NCAA and the GLeague. They are separate entities. The kid wasn't poached. He was offered an alternative. The NLI has consequences within the NCAA but means nothing to the GLeague. The kid didn't quit he chose a different path. What type of penalty are you imagining for this type of situation? Who is going to be penalized? Say an athlete makes the commitment you suggest and after his sophomore year decides to go pro and says he has no intention of coming back and getting his degree. You want to punish the schools/programs? Have they done anything wrong? Your second suggestion wouldn't make it to a court of law unless the NCAA and the NBA signed an agreement. The NBA would never agree to that idea. The best thing that could happen to NCAA hoops is for the NBA to allow players to be drafted directly from high school again. [/QUOTE]
