OT: Vance Jackson declares for the NBA

[HooperScooper]

You can only withdraw once.

Before 2016, the NCAA only allowed a player to enter the NBA draft once without losing eligibility, but current NCAA rules now allow players to declare for and withdraw from multiple NBA drafts while retaining college eligibility. The CBA allows a player to withdraw twice.

What does declaring even mean, particularly without an agent and not being a top level payer? If a bench warmer at Southeast Dakota State declares, will they get evaluated by NBA teams? Do you go knock on the door at MSG and ask the Knicks to evaluate you? Do you send an evite to GMs to come watch you play at your high school gym?

Do I need to slow this one down for you Satin Pants? If he went to any other school besides UConn his freshman year and didn't play 25 minutes a game dad would've said the coach is "using him wrong".....this one wasn't KO. It was just a misinformed kid and his whacked out dad.

And THAT is who KO brought in, so it is still on him. He had no ability to separate out the winners from the similarly ranked guys of lesser character or abilities.

That said, I like Vance and we would have been very happy to get 13 and 7 out of any of our forwards this season.
