    This is just my opinion, but I strongly dislike this one-and-done rule.

    Granted, it used to be that you didn't even need a year of college to make the jump, but I feel like two years in college, as opposed to one, is a stronger indicator of how one will do in the NBA.

    Good for Terrence Jones though. I felt bad since UK fans keep losing their star freshman; now, I feel less bad. :)

    You totally misread. He's returning.

    Smart choice, with the lockout, Terrence will make more money in Kentucky.

    If it wasn't for the lockout, he'd be gone.

    This is going to be a wretched draft - prospects are staying away since they understand they won't see a paycheck for 6 months or longer.

    If there wasn't a lockout his draft stock would not be as high since Sullinger, Barnes, and Perry Jones would have probably declared.

    Either way he most likely would have come back.

    Bad decision by Jones IMO. He would have been a lottery pick this year. I'd expect him to a late first rounder next year, but I've never been a fan.
    I just don't see what people like in him. He's an athlete, but other than that? I don't know. I just don't see it.
